Hansi Flick’s players come into Sunday’s game in imperious domestic form, topping La Liga having won each of their opening nine matches. The Blaugrana will nonetheless be looking to bounce back after going down 4-2 to Paris Saint-Germain in an entertaining UEFA Champions League encounter in Paris on Tuesday — their first defeat in any competition so far this season.
