This is Barcelona's line-up in the first match in the post Ronald Koeman era.
Sergio Aguero, who scored his first Barcelona goal in the 2-1 home El Clasico loss to Real Madrid last Sunday, makes only his third start for Barca.
His former Manchester City team-mate Eric Garcia is in the defence, with ex-Manchester United man Memphis Depay also in the starting line-up.
Barcelona make two changes from the starting line-up against Rayo Vallecano as Sergi Roberto misses out and ex-Liverpool midfielder Philippe Coutinho drops to the bench with starting spots for Oscar Mingueza and 17-year-old Gavi.
