Barcelona will face Brest tomorrow, Tuesday, in a Champions League match at Montjuïc Stadium. Barcelona aims to extend its winning streak in the competition, having triumphed in the last three rounds against Young Boys, Bayern Munich, and Red Star. Currently, Barcelona is in sixth place in the Champions League standings with 9 points, 3 points behind the leader, Liverpool.
According to the Catalan newspaper Sport, left-back Alejandro Balde played in Barcelona’s match against Celta Vigo despite some discomfort. However, coach Hans Flick chose not to risk further injury and decided to assess him before the Brest game. Balde wasn’t fit enough, and the German coach may leave him out of tomorrow’s match.
With the game against Brest approaching, Balde’s status remains uncertain. His condition will be closely monitored in the next few hours before a final decision is made about his participation. Meanwhile, Lamine Yamal will miss the match due to not fully recovering from an ankle injury. Yamal also missed Barcelona’s last two La Liga matches, which saw the team fail to win.
