Viktoria Plzeň vs Barcelona Match Preview
FC Barcelona will be looking to continue their excellent European form when they travel to face FC Viktoria Plzen in the Czech Republic.

Barcelona are currently joint top of Group H, while Plzen are six points further back and tied for last place.

Marek Cech is sidelined with a knee injury for Plzen, while goalkeeper Roman Pavlik has returned to full fitness.

Pedro Rodriguez and Ibrahim Afellay are ruled out with injury for Barca, while Xavi Hernandez and Alexis Sanchez are injury doubts.

Barcelona are still without long-term absentees Ibrahim Afellay and Alexis Sanchez, who are still shelved with a cruciate knee injury and a hamstring problem respectively.

Cesc Fabregas is set to make his return in the Champions League after his hamstring strain and may be selected in the 'false 9' role in attack.

Pedro will miss the game with a knee injury after coming off in the Liga win against Granada a week ago.
