POSSIBLE FC BARCELONA STARTING TEAM 11 LINE-UP AGAINST PARIS ST GERMAIN

Big Champions League Football game coming up between Paris St Germain & FC Barcelona in the 1º leg quarter-final clash of the competition. Both teams are showing maximum respect for each other & FC Barcelona comes into the match without that "unbeatable aura" of past encounters.

The 2 - 0 defeat by Barcelona at Milan in their last away game has given opponents signs, clues & hopes on how to cancel out the Barça almighty ball possession Football. The French are basically timidly positive that they can surprise Barça at Paris, at least they have the team for it.

The inevitable question arises, what will be the starting 11 team line-up for FC Barcelona ?  Difficult to categorically say as the team Coaches have nearly always a surprise up their sleeves,  but one can speculate & deduce & this is what the Spanish Sports daily based in Barcelona "Mundo Deportivo" do with their Monday front-cover.

The daily puts up the following Barça starting team line-up against Paris St Germain:

Valdes, Alves, Pique, Mascherano, Jordi Alba, Xavi Hernandez, Busquets, Iniesta, David Villa, Lionel Messi & Tello ( Alexis ).

On paper it´s a powerful 11 that has all the chances to get back to Barcelona with an advantage. However, as I always remind readers this line-up is speculative & it wont be until the last 45 min from kick-off that the Coaches will show their cards.
