Barcelona head into the match after a 2-1 defeat to Osasuna in La Liga last Saturday. The Catalan side will be eager to bounce back and secure a strong performance in Europe as they seek to put their domestic disappointment behind them.
Young Boys, meanwhile, are also coming off a loss, having been beaten 3-2 by Grasshoppers in the Swiss Super League.
