FC Barcelona could line-up in a 3-5-2 formation against Napoli in their UEFA Champions League return match this weekend. Quique Setién is said to be considering a formation switch away from his 4-3-3 and 4-3-1-2 schemes, although it is not definitive.
The lineup, according to the frontpage of Diario SPORT, would start with Marc-André ter Stegen in goal, and a three man line with Gerard Piqué in the middle, Clément Lenglet on the left, and Nélson Semedo on the right. Sergi Roberto and Jordi Alba would be deployed as wingbacks, with Frenkie de Jong, Ivan Rakitiu0107 and Riqui Puig in midfield, given the absences of Sergio Busquets and Arturo Vidal through suspension and the fact Arthur essentially quit the team.
