Coach Ronaldo Koeman left his squad announcement for the final Champions League group stage game until the morning of the contest. The Blaugrana take on Juventus at the Camp Nou (9pm CET) in a game that will decide which of the two sides will finish top of the group, with both already having confirmed their places in the knockout stages.
The 23-man squad includes the return of Samuel Umtiti, who received medical clearance after overcoming problems with his left knee. The centre back has been training with the squad over the past few days.
Also on the list are Ter Stegen, Dest, R. Araujo, Sergio, Aleñá, Griezmann, Pjanic, Braithwaite, Messi, Riqui Puig, Neto, Coutinho, Lenglet, Pedri, Trincao, Jordi Alba, Matheus, F. De Jong, Junior, Iñaki Peña, O. Mingueza and Konrad. Out through injury are Piqué, Sergi Roberto, Ansu Fati and Dembélé.
As has become customary before Champions League games, Koeman ran his side through an activation session on Tuesday morning for a final briefing, ahead of the crunch clash with the Italian team.
