Ernesto Valverde may choose Lionel Messi as a striker or Munir El Haddadi

Barca’s injury troubles against Atletico Madrid at the weekend will condition the match on Wednesday in the Champions League against PSV Eindhoven (9:00 pm CET) as Ernesto Valverde, has been left without five players, including striker Luis Suarez.

The Uruguayan carries some discomfort in his knee and has been forced to take therapy with stem cells that will keep him out of action for two weeks.

Ernesto Valverde gets Philippe Coutinho back and now the coach must decide how to form his attack to take on the Dutch side.

The player with the most similar profile to Suarez is Munir, although the player has had limited participation so far (228 minutes in 8 games, with 1 goal and 1 assist).

There is the possibility that Leo Messi returns to the position of 'false 9', with Coutinho as well as Ousmane Dembélé alongside him. Malcom is another option if Coutinho plays in midfield to cover for injured midfielder Arthur Melo.
