Deportivo v Barcelona – Confirmed lineups – Enrique forced into making changes

Barcelona manager Luis Enrique has been forced into making major changes to his starting lineup for today’s encounter with Deportivo.

The 46-year-old tactician is unable to call upon Neymar Jr who starred during Barcelona’s come-back win over Paris Saint Germain on Wednesday.

Neymar scored two goals and set up Sergi Roberto for the miraculous winner in the final moments of the game. Barcelona qualified to the quarter finals after recording a 6-5 aggregate win over PSG.

Barcelona go into today’s game in top spot and know a win will keep them in pole position. Luis Enrique’s side are a point ahead of their biter rivals Real Madrid in the Spanish league.

Turkey international Arda Turan has been included in the starting lineup and is expected to play in Neymar’s position on the left. Meanwhile Andre Gomez comes in for Iniesta while Sergi Roberto starts in place of Ivan Rakitic.
