Barcelona host Feyenoord at Spotify Camp Nou on Wednesday, September 9 (12:45 PM ET / 11:45 AM CT / 9:45 AM PT).
Barcelona go into this one facing a genuine squeeze at the back: suspended Pau Cubarsi and suspended Rodri both serve bans from red cards, while injured Jesse Bisiwu, injured Roony Bardghji and injured Frenkie de Jong remain unavailable through ankle, cruciate and knee issues respectively. That shifts the emphasis further forward, and Lamine Yamal and Fermín López — who each scored six goals last season — look the two most likely to carry the attack at Camp Nou. Feyenoord’s only absentee is injured Thomas Beelen (lower leg), with Tsuyoshi Watanabe and Anis Hadj Moussa the two forward names to watch after each found the net for the Dutch side last season.

- Fermín López (Barcelona): López matched Yamal for goals last season with 6, doing it from fewer touches — 23 shots, 12 of them on target.

Barcelona vs Feyenoord Prediction
Neither side has a league-phase table to point to yet, so this comes down to individual quality, and Barcelona have plenty more of it in the final third. Expect goals early, a goal back for Feyenoord to make it interesting, and Barcelona to have this settled well before full time — 3-1 to the hosts.
