Lamine Yamal and Ilias in UEFA Youth League squad to face Bayern
Barcelona have named a strong squad for their second game in the competition
Barcelona's U19 team (Juvenil A) take on Bayern Munich this week in the UEFA Youth League. After beating Viktoria Plzen 3-0 in their opening game, Oscar Lopez's side are chasing a second successive win.
The Catalan side will be able to count on Marc Casado, Txus Alba and Ilias from the B team, who all featured in Sunday's win for Barça Atletic in the third division.
However, due to that fixture, they will be without Chadi Riad and Alex Valle, although Diego Almeida and Dani Rodriguez both return to the 20-man squad.
There is also a spot once again for 15-year-old Lamine Yamal, who came off the bench against Plzen last Wednesday and then scored a brace for the U19s at the weekend.
