Tuchel’s preferred 3-4-3 system will be tested, with Marc Andre Ter Stegen beginning in net.
The three defenders should be Andreas Christensen, Jules Kounde, and Eric Garcia, with Frenkie De Jong playing defensive midfield.
Gavi should play as the centre back while Pedri stays as the offensive midfielder. Wing-backs Hector and Balde ought to be used.
Despite the presence of Ousmane Dembele and Ferran Torres on the flanks, Robert Lewandowski should continue to play as a striker.
Recall that Barcelona failed to impress throughout the game, losing disappointingly after a dreadful effort that caused them to fall to second place on the table despite being in first place prior to the game.
