As ever, we’re keeping a cautious eye on this one, as we’ve seen enough of coach Luis Enrique’s ability to surprise. We’ll have to wait until we’re sure of the choices he’s made within his great competition, the management of his squad and the precise analysis he’s made of his opponents.

And they will undoubtedly need to put in a strong performance if they are to win in Lyon.
