This is one of those games that captures the imagination. Barcelona and Bayern Munich are two of the most storied clubs in football, and their clashes always produce fireworks. The last time these two teams met, it resulted in one of the most astonishing scorelines in history.
Now, a radically changed Barcelona team — no Messi, no Suarez, no Griezmann, and no Setien — will welcome Bayern to the Camp Nou for the first time since 2015. While Bayern have won both games since then, neither were at the Catalans’ home stadium, which will host fans in the Champions League for the first time in almost two years. While Koeman isn’t exactly a tactical mastermind, Nagelsmann will have his work cut out dealing with a fatigued squad and numerous injuries.
