Fermín Lopez (7 mins)
Perfect start for Barcelona!
Olympiacos had surprised them a bit with some early pressing but, after Marcus Rashford volleyed just over, Fermín López opens the scoring.
It comes after great work by Lamine Yamal as his trickery has defenders sliding around him. He almost rounds the goalkeeper but Lopez picks the ball up off him and fires home.
Barcelona 0-0 Olympiacos
Image source, Getty ImagesThere are two early kick-offs in the Champions League tonight with Barcelona hosting Olympiacos and Kairat at home to Pafos. Both those games have just got under way.
Barcelona are enduring an injury crisis at the moment, but manager Hansi Flick has managed to make two changes to the side that beat Girona 2-1 in La Liga on Saturday.
Perhaps with an eye on Sunday's El Clasico at the Bernabeu, Frenkie de Jong drops to the bench and is replaced in midfield by Fermin Lopez.
With Robert Lewandowski injured and Ferran Torres only fit enough for the bench, there is a full Champions League debut for 17-year-old forward Dro Fernandez.
Raphinha, Dani Olmo and Andreas Christensen are sidelined with injury.
Barcelona XI: Szczesny, Kounde, Garcia, Cubarsi, Balde, Pedri, Casado, Fermin, Yamal, Dro Fernandez, Rashford.
Subs: Araujo, Ferran, Gerard Martin, Roony, De Jong, Bernal, Jofre, A.Fernandez, Kochen, Eder Aller, Juan, Xavi Espart.
Olympiacos boss Jose Luis Mendilibar names the same team that lost 2-0 to Arsenal three weeks ago, with former Inter Milan striker Mehdi Taremi once again named among the substitutes.
Olympiacos XI: Tzolakis, Costinha, Retsos, Pirola, Ortega, Garcia, Hezze, Martins, Chiquinho, Podence, El Kaabi.
Subs: Paschalakis, Biancone, Kalogeropoulos, Nascimento, Yaremchuk, Scipioni, Strefezza, Kouraklis, Onyemaechi, Pnevmonidis, Mouzakitis, Taremi.
