Robert Lewandowski and Roony Bardghji would be substitutes this Wednesday, as would Marcus Rashford.

Diego Kochen took his place.<\/p>  <h2><b>Possible Athletic lineup against Barcelona<\/b><\/h2>  <ul> <li> <b><strong>Probable XI<\/strong>: <\/b>Unai Sim\u00f3n; Areso, Dani Vivian, Paredes, Lekue; Ruiz de Galarreta, Jauregizar; I\u00f1aki Williams, Oihan Sancet, Nico Williams; Gorka Guruzeta.<\/li> \t<li> <b><strong>Bench<\/strong>: <\/b>Padilla (GK), Santos (GK), Gorosabel, Adama Boiro, Monreal, Vesga, Unai G\u00f3mez, Rego, S\u00e1nchez, Garc\u00eda, Izeta, Berenguer, Navarro.<\/li> \t<li> <b><strong>Injured<\/strong>: <\/b>Yuri Berchiche, Aymeric Laporte, Unai Egiluz, Be\u00f1at Prados, Maroan Sannadi. Suspended: Yeray \u00c1lvarez.<\/li> <\/ul> <p>For their part, Athletic will be without two of their starting defenders, central defender Aymeric Laporte and full-back Yuri Berchiche, both injured. Ernesto Valverde has five players out due to physical problems, in addition to the suspended Yeray \u00c1lvarez (doping) to face the Spanish Super Cup.<\/p>  <p>Barring a surprise, &#8216;Txingurri&#8217; will bet on Unai Sim\u00f3n in goal and a 4-2-3-1 formation to try to contain Bar\u00e7a with a compact block and the speed of the Williams brothers in attack.
