Barcelona visit England for the second time this season, but they’ll be on more familiar territory on Tuesday night, as they take on Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
The stadium has played host to some iconic Blaugrana Champions League moments, from Ronaldinho’s shimmy and toe poke to Andrés Iniesta’s stunning away goal that thrust Pep Guardiola’s side into the competition’s showpiece event in 2009.
There’s less riding on Tuesday’s outing compared to previous do-or-die encounters, but both teams are vying to end the gameweek inside the top eight of the league phase table.
Barcelona were dominant during this phase last season, but have encountered more difficulties this time around. Still, spirits are high in Hansi Flick’s camp after a celebratory return to the Camp Nou at the weekend, and a second victory on English shores will ensure their contentment remains ahead of a busy run of fixtures.
Here’s how the visitors could line up in west London.
