Making only one change to his
starting XI for Barcelona's trip to face Athletic Club in LaLiga, Luis Enrique
has handed Lionel Messi his 350th appearance for the Catalans.
Wearing
the armband as he becomes only the fifth player to reach the milestone for the
club, the Argentine will be looking to fire his side to yet another victory in
Basque Country.
Lining up
in attack alongside Messi is Luis Suarez and Arda Turan, the Turk continuing to
deputise for the absent Neymar as Munir El Haddadi is restricted to the bench
amid rumours he'll soon depart for Celta Vigo.
As Claudio
Bravo has completed his move to Manchester City, the fit-again Marc-Andre ter Stegen is picked in goal
to replace the Chilean, marking his first start
of the campaign.
That means
there'll be no debut in Bilbao for Jasper Cillessen, the Dutch goalkeeper not
even making the bench after signing from Ajax during the week.
