Barcelona remains undefeated in this edition of the Champions League (two wins and one draw, and is the leader with 7 points) and shares first place in the domestic competition, but their football is far from what is expected from a team full of stars that aspires, once again, to compete for all titles.
Two weeks ago in Prague, they had to fight hard to defeat Slavia away from home (2-1). They also had to sweat to beat Inter at Camp Nou (2-1) and had a miraculous escape in Dortmund (0-0).
It is obvious that Barcelona has been playing with fire for weeks, a fact that even players like Marc-André Ter Stegen or Antoine Griezmann have acknowledged, despite their coach Ernesto Valverde insisting on denying the evidence, at least in public, over and over again.
The Blaugrana will have a new opportunity to raise their level - something necessary if they want to succeed in Europe - helped by their status as the home team, as their game improves when played at Camp Nou.
However, they will do it without their starting number 9, Uruguayan Luis Suárez, who suffered a calf injury against Levante, and presumably, without center-back Samuel Umtiti, who continues to recover from knee problems he has been experiencing for some time.
Ousmane Dembélé should take Luis Suárez's place in the starting eleven, as Valverde did not include him in the last league match. The rest of the lineup will be the usual one, with Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets returning to the starting team in place of Sergi Roberto and Arturo Vidal.
Unbeaten in the league and with a twelve-point advantage over the second-placed team at the halfway point of the season, Slavia Prague (4th with one point), on the other hand, faces their match at Camp Nou with the intention of repeating the good performance they showed two weeks ago against Barcelona, despite losing 1-2 at home.
