Barcelona vs Tottenham team news
Ilkay Gündogan and Andreas Christensen both came off in the first half against Real Madrid at the start of pre-season and may not be included once the new season has started.
Ousmane Dembele will not feature as his move to PSG is nearing completion but Robert Lewandowski will lead the squad.

Richarlison is expected to be there having missed the Shakhtar game by just one shot, while Manor Solomon and Yves Bissouma could be among those who come in and get their chance to impress.
