Could start against PSG
Raphinha is in contention to return to the starting lineup for Tuesday's Champions League clash against Paris Saint-Germain after making his comeback from injury Saturday, according to coach Hansi Flick. "Raphinha could start tomorrow."
Analysis: Raphinha returned from a two-game absence during Saturday's 5-2 victory over Real Betis, playing 20 minutes off the bench while recording one shot, two chances created and two corners. The Brazilian has been in outstanding form as Barcelona's central striker this season, registering 14 goals, three assists and 20 chances created across nine appearances in La Liga and the Champions League combined. His potential return to the starting lineup would provide Barcelona with a significant attacking boost ahead of Tuesday's blockbuster showdown against PSG, the reigning back-to-back Champions League winners.
