Serbian official Mirolad Mazic will be in charge of the Champions League Group B game between Barcelona and Tottenham at Camp Nou on Tuesday, while Italian referee Davide Massa will oversee Atletico Madrid's trip to Club Brugge. 

Mazic, on FIFRA's list since 2009, has taken charge of one game in the competition so far this season -- Manchester United's 1-0 loss at home to Juventus on Oct. 23. He's previously overseen two Barça games. He was the official for 3-2 win against Spartak Moscow in 2012 and also for the goalless draw against Juve last year. 

The Serbian will be assisted by compatriots Milovan Ristic and Dalibor Djurdjevic.

Barça have already won the group but Tottenham need to match or better Inter's result (the Italians host PSV) to qualify along with the Catalans. The two teams are level on points but Spurs have the edge in the head-to-head record thanks to away goals. 

Ernesto Valverde says he will respect the competition but has not made any promises concerning who will play the game, with some changes expected from Saturday's 4-0 win over Espanyol.
