In Germany, "Barcelona" will play without several leaders

The last UEFA Champions League Group E match will not stop the "Barcelona" team, so the Catalan club will travel to Leverkusen without several key players.

By the decision of the head coach Luis Enrique, Barcelona will be without goalkeeper Andres Iniesta and defender Gerard Pique. In Germany, also missing due to minor injuries are Jeremy Mathieu and Sergi Roberto, as well as Rafinha and Douglas Pereira.

Additionally, there will also be no yellow card limit-exceeding Brazilian Daniel Alves in the ranks of Barcelona.

The current holders of the UEFA Champions League trophy have already secured not only a ticket to next year's knockout stage, but also the first place in the group, so Luis Enrique can afford to experiment. Meanwhile, these matches will be crucial for the "Bayer" team, as the other two teams in the group, "AS Roma" and BATE Borisov, also have chances to fight for the right to continue the tournament next year.

Players registered for the match against "Bayer":

Goalkeepers: Claudio Bravo, Marc-Andre ter Stegen;

Defenders: Jordi Alba, Thomas Vermaelen, Javier Mascherano, Marc Bartra, Adriano Correia, Gerard Gumbau;

Midfielders: Sergio Busquets, Ivan Rakitic, Sergi Samper, Wilfrid Kaptoum, Juan Camara;

Forwards: Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, Neymar, Munir El Haddadi, Sandro Ramirez.
