Barca release squad for Bayern game with Gavi in and Sergi Roberto out

Bayern Munich are favourites to be end the Champions League group in first place and they will face a Barcelona side who need help from elsewhere. Barca will be without Sergi Roberto for the key contest, but Gavi will be available despite picking up a knock on Sunday night. 

The good news for the La Liga outfit is the presence of the young talent. He took a knee to the groin after a nasty collision with Dani Garcia of Athletic Bilbao. Xavi Hernandez decided to take him off the pitch and his participation in the European fixture. 

The bad news for Barca is the injury to Sergi Roberto. The academy player was showing his worth in the match against Athletic Bilbao after a few months in which his performances were questioned. However, he dislocated his shoulder and he will be out of action for five to six weeks.

The full squad list is the following: Ter Stegen, Inaki Pena, Arnau Tenas; Bellerin, Pique, Marcos Alonso, Jordi Alba, Eric Garcia, Koundé, Balde; Sergio Busquets, Pedri, Kessie, De Jong, Gavi, Pablo Torre; Dembele, Lewandowski, Ansu Fati, Ferran Torres, Raphinha.
