Barcelona will look to get their Champions League Group C campaign off to the best possible start when they welcome Viktoria Plzen to Camp Nou on Wednesday night.

The Catalan outfit will go into the game from the back of a 3-0 win over Sevilla in La Liga on Saturday, while Plzen recorded a 1-0 win over Slovan Liberec in the Czech League in their last game.

Barcelona struggled in their opening match of the 2022-23 La Liga season, held to a goalless draw by Rayo Vallecano, but they have been outstanding in their last three matches, recording three wins, scoring 11 in the process, and conceding. only once.

Xavi’s team will now look to start their European campaign with a win, and Group C will be an interesting part, with Inter Milan and Bayern Munich also in attendance alongside Barcelona and Plzen.
