On Wednesday, October 1st, Paris Saint-Germain and FC Barcelona will face each other at the Montjuïc Stadium for the second matchday of the Champions League group stage. Both teams have several players unavailable or doubtful for the match. While 18-year-old forward Lamine Yamal is recovering from an injury, 28-year-old forward Raphinha and 24-year-old goalkeeper Joan Garcia were added to the injury list this Friday.
Yamal:
Raphinha and Garcia:
The news is therefore mixed for Barça, who could see their young prodigy available on Wednesday, though he may not be at 100% after his extended absence, but who also lose two players. One is a very important forward and their number two goalkeeper, while Marc-André Ter Stegen (33) is still sidelined with an injury. Furthermore, Fermín López (22, midfielder) and Gavi (21, midfielder) are already out. Alejandro Baldé (21, left back) is also doubtful.
