Xavi's squad list for FC Barcelona-Benfica in the Champions League

The FC Barcelona will live a new 'final' to keep alive in the UEFA Champions League. The Barcelona will receive to the Benfica of Jorge Jesus this Tuesday in the Camp Nou, from the 21:00 hours, in the corresponding party to the fifth day of the phase of groups. The Barça is forced to win to the picture lisboeta to depend on yes same of face to the classification to the eighth of final. The victory is the only option for the team directed by Xavi Hernández that will debut, from the benches, in the continental competition.

The Barça has at present six points in the classification of the group And, two more than the Benfica, in the third square and six less than the Bayern of Munich, leader in solitary. They are very few the options, by not saying any, that have the Barcelona to classify like first of group, but yes are many to happen like second. In any case, the victory in front of the Portuguese picture is key to be able to seal the pass to eighth, because they would remain to five points of advantage on the group directed by Jorge Jesus and the result in the last day, in Munich, would not be decisive.

However, a tie or defeat would complicate too much the options of the Barça and would define everything in the last date. For now, if the Barcelona picture empata in front of the Benfica, will be forced to win to the Bayern in the last day not to depend on a 'prick' of the lusos in the last day, when they will confront to a Dynamo of Kiev that no longer plays at all. Of there that it was more important that never that Xavi Hernández debut like trainer in the Champions League with a victory.

The egarense will not have it easy, surely. Already against the Espanyol, the Barça finished asking the hour and suffering to the end. For the 'final' in the Camp Nou, Xavi will not be able to have players like Abde or Ilias Akhomach, but yes has recovered effective. Little by little, the infirmary has been freeing and the trainer has more options to configure his alignment. In any case, in the official announcement for the party against the Benfica, the Barça has presented several novelties.
