Club Brugge vs Barcelona: Team News and Injury Updates
Club Brugge will be without four key players through injury on Wednesday night, with Bjorn Meijer, Simon Mignolet, Ludovit Reis, and Raphael Onyedika all sidelined and unavailable for selection.
With Mignolet still recovering, Nordin Jackers is expected to continue in goal. In attack, Christos Tzolis should retain his place after an impressive start to the season — the Greek winger has been Club Brugge’s standout performer so far, contributing eight goals and eight assists in 21 appearances across all competitions.
Meanwhile, Nicolo Tresoldi will once again lead the line, having registered six goals and three assists this campaign.
As for Barcelona, both Robert Lewandowski and Dani Olmo made successful returns from injury in the weekend win over Elche and are set to feature in the squad once again. However, Joan Garcia remains unavailable despite returning to training last week.
Defender Andreas Christensen completed a light session on Monday but is expected to miss out as the club continue to manage his calf issue carefully.
Lamine Yamal’s minor groin problem is being monitored, though the 18-year-old is likely to start. Barcelona remain without Gavi (knee), Marc-André ter Stegen (back), Raphinha (hamstring), and Pedri (hamstring), all of whom are still in the treatment room.
