Barcelona do need a long-term striker, so pursuing Riquelme Angulo could be ingenious. However, they will surely face significant competition for his services, should they end up making a move.
Ahead of the fixture, Barcelona will recover four players: Wojciech Szczesny, Gavi, Dani Olmo and Fermin Lopez. By comparison, Bayern could be without one of their most important starters: Jamal Musiala.
Two weeks ago, Musiala suffered a hip injury against Eintracht Frankfurt. According to Bayern head coach Vincent Kompany (via MD), the 21-year-old attacking midfielder will miss their match this weekend, while he is also labelled as a doubt for the trip to Barcelona.
Musiala’s absence would be a massive blow for Bayern, and in turn, a major boost for Barcelona. In the next 48-72 hours, it will be determined whether he will be able to feature for the Bavaria-based side.
