After two months out of action, Barcelona return to the playing field on Friday for a behind-closed-doors friendly with Spanish third-division side CE Europa.
The World Cup has kept the majority of Barça’s first teamers busy over the past six weeks and only a handful of regulars are available to Hansi Flick for his first warmup match. While the German will expect his side to brush aside lower-league opponents, he will have to cobble together an unfamiliar XI to take on the assignment.
