Barcelona predicted lineup vs Athletic Club : Match Preview

Barcelona will be playing their 2nd only match without Messi being a part of the club in the last 17 years. All eyes are on the Spanish Giants as they continue life without the attacking maestro. It can be argued that they still have a great number of talented players in their attacking front which is led by Frenchman Antoine Griezmann. Athletic Club will look to use their home advantage against a Barcelona team which can certainly be exploited if they get their tactics on point.

Barcelona still have a thing or two to sort out in their defensive gameplay which can be exploited by Marcelino and his men, but on the other hand, the midfield chemistry of energy and experience which the Spanish Giants have in abundance as well as their attacking talents on and off the field may be the difference between the two teams.
