The meeting, corresponding to the International Champions Cup, will contest to the 19.00 hours and will serve also to put in practical new concepts worked in the trainings.

It does not foresee that Luis Enrique and his assistants eat "" the head more than the account to the hour to make the alignments, taking into account that in this type of parties the most likely is that all the players -or almost all- finish having minutes. The one who will not have them is Martín Montoya, that has not trained during the last days by a slight injury, in addition to because it is about to close his traspaso to Valencia. Also it is an incógnita if it will participate Cristian Tello, the one who neither explains for Luis Enrique and that it could recalar again yielded in the Fiorentina, unless some club pay around 8 millions for doing with his services. This is the possible alignment that could present the Barça of start:

Jordi Masip

In the goal, the most likely is that the cancerbero title was Jordi Masip, of the first team, to the detriment of José Aurelio Suárez that it also carries working with the first team from the start of the trainings 2016-17. Suárez will have minutes along the meeting, was in the first or second part, but the leadership will be for Jordi Masip, an archer accustomed to be third goalkeeper after Ter Stegen and Bravo and that, therefore, can not have of too many minutes along the course.

Sergi Roberto-Marlon-Martínez-Mathieu

In defence, is a possibility that Luis Enrique decide to go out with Sergi Roberto like right side and a saga formed by two head offices of the Barça B, Marlon and Martínez, both fichados this pertinent summer of Fluminense and Athletic Seville, respectively. In the left side, after the course of Adriano and to fault that they incorporate Lucas Digne and Jordi Alba to the discipline culé, the most likely is that it was Mathieu of start.

Samper-Camera-Carbonell

The centre of the field will be a lottery in which, besides, will have a lot of rotations during the party. Luis Enrique and his assistants could begin with a half field formed by Sergi Samper of defensive pivote and Camera and Carbonell like interiors, although other footballers like Gumbau, Denis Suárez, Aleñá or Borja López also will have minutes. The Barça will try to do quickly with the control of the game.

Mujica-Denis-Luis Suárez

In the attacker flank, can that Luis Enrique bet for planting to Denis Suárez like mediapunta or "false nine", a so much more retarded that the two main forwards, or use to the Galician in the position of left-handed extreme, with the presence of Mujica and Luis Suárez. Lionel Messi, Alfaro and Munir also will have minutes of game in said positions.
