Barcelona Team News: Valverde set to rotate, Arsenal target spotted in London

Barcelona take on Sporting Lisbon tonight as they look to maintain their unbeaten run in the UEFA Champions League.

The La Liga giants have already secured their spot in the next round and their head-to-head record with Juventus means they will finish as group winners regardless of the result.

However, Sporting Lisbon can still claim the runner-up spot but will need to defeat Barcelona and hope Juventus fail to beat Olympiacos in Greece.

Barcelona Team News: 

Arsenal target Arda Turan has been left out of the match day squad. The 30-year-old has been linked with a January exit and was spotted in London alongside his agent Ahmet Bulut.

Premier League giants Arsenal have been linked with a move for the Turkey international.

Barca boss Ernesto Valverde is expected to rotate his squad but refused to reveal whether Lionel Messi will be among those rested during the pre-game press conference.

Dembele, Mascherano, Rafina and Umtiti will all miss the game due to injuries. Meanwhile Andres Iniesta is a doubt coming into the game due to a calf injury.
