    Barcelona manager Ernesto Valverde said tonight's match will be played in "extraordinary and lamentable circumstances".

    "We are calm. Moreover, we support the reaction of the people in Plaza Catalunya, that 'we are not afraid'," he added.

    "We have to stand up to these circumstances and the best way is by moving forward. It is our job and we we have an important game, but it is a different day for everyone.

    "It makes you reflect at times when you have problems that everything is relative. It puts things in their place and that there are far more important things than small problems."

    There will be a minute’s silence before kick-off, and players will be wearing black armbands.

    It will be an evening of solidarity and solace, and football.

    Barca are to play in special a kit, without individual names on the back - just Barcelona.

    And the front will bear the message: 'Tots som Barcelona', 'We are all Barcelona', in Catalan.
