Team news and form guide

Barcelona: Won last five matches

We're expecting Barcelona to go with the same starting lineup that helped secure a 2-1 win in Brann last week, which means Salma Paralluelo should start on the left-hand side of a front three where she will be looking to score against Brann again.

Predicted lineup: Coll (GK), Bronze, Paredes, Batlle, Guijarro, Bonmatí, Walsh, Engen, Graham Hansen, Caldentey & Paralluelo

Brann: Lost last two

Brann gave a good account of themselves at home to Barcelona with only one goal separating the pair at the final whistle and with that in mind, we're backing the Norwegians to go with the same starting eleven that took to the field in that 2-1 defeat.

Predicted lineup: Mikalsen (GK), Stenevik, Redisch Kvamme, Bratberg Lund, Østenstad, Tynnilä, Haugland, Engesvik, Kielland, Gaupset & Crummer

Player to watch – Salma Paralluelo

Salma Paralluelo has scored 22 goals in all competitions for Barcelona this season, five of which have arrived in the Champions League.

Salma Paralluelo will be looking for more goals against Brann

The talented youngster impressed in the first leg last week and we're backing her to put in another impressive display that will likely lead to more goals being added to her ever-increasing tally for the season.
