Barcelona manager Ernesto Valverde is set to ring the changes against HuescaBarcelona host Manchester United in the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final on Wednesday night so should rest a host of stars. With the La Liga title all-bit wrapped up, Valverde can afford to give his key players the afternoon off in a game they will be expected win no matter starting XI the manager chooses. Lionel Messi was left bloodied after a clash with Chris Smalling in the first leg of their quarter-final with Manchester United so should be given time to recover before the crucial second leg. That should mean a rare start for Malcom out wide, while Ousmane Dembele should come in for suspendedLuis Saurez as the main attacker. Those two could switch positions throughout the match, with Philippe Coutinho out on the left.
