Barça's first day in Eindhoven
Players work out on a cold, damp evening in the southern Netherlands in preparation for Wednesday's Champions League clash with the Eredivisie leaders
The 21 Barça players that made the trip to Holland worked out on Tuesday evening in the 35,000 capacity PSV Stadion ahead of Wednesday's Champions League encounter with a side that has a 100% record after the first 13 games in the Dutch Eredivisie.
It’s chilly in the Netherlands this week. Temperatures of around 4ºC and plenty of drizzle greeted the players as they took to the field following Arturo Vidal and Ernesto Valverde’s press conferences.
A win (kickoff is at 9.00pm CET) would guarantee that Barça finish top of Group B, no matter what happens in the other game between Tottenham and Inter.
Remember, Barça have travelled with sixteen members of the first team, namely Ter Stegen, Semedo, Piqué, Rakitic, Sergio Busquets, Denis Suárez, Coutinho, Messi, Dembélé, Malcom, Lenglet, Jordi Alba, Munir, Vidal, Umtiti and Aleñá plus Iñaki Peña (30), Jokin (31), Miranda (27), Riqui Puig (28) and Chumi (36) of Barça B.
