Barcelona will begin their 2020-21 Champions League campaign with a clash against Hungarian side Ferencvaros at Camp Nou on Tuesday night.
The Catalan giants, who were knocked out of last season's European Cup in incredible fashion by Bayern Munich in the quarter-finals, will be determined to make a positive start to their Group G campaign.
Ronald Koeman's side will enter the match off the back of a disappointing result, though, suffering a 1-0 defeat to Getafe in their fourth La Liga fixture of the season on Saturday evening.
