What They're Saying

Barcelona manager Luis Enrique (via the club's official website): "It's hard to see us playing the same team for the Gamper and the European Super Cup, though I've not yet decided who'll play. I'm still focused on things around the preseason and ensuring everyone gets some game time. We've been prioritizing other things ahead of this first official game."

AS Roma manager Rudi Garcia (via Football Italia): "In the first round we'll face Hellas Verona, then immediately host Juventus. We must make sure we are ready for games like this, rapidly getting new players integrated into the squad. When we change, it is important to keep in mind the time it takes to adapt. I saw that in the final rounds some other intriguing games await us."

Tactical Preview

Player to Watch: Having missed most of Barcelona's preseason tour due to holiday, Lionel Messi returns to the fold at the Nou Camp. The soon-to-be FIFA Ballon d'Or winner finished his last league campaign with 43 goals and 18 assists.

Barcelona's Projected Lineup (4-3-3): Bravo; Alves, Piqué Mascherano, Alba; Rakitic, Busquets, Iniesta; Messi, Suarez, Neymar

AS Roma's Projected Lineup (4-3-3): Sanctis; Maicon, Leandro, Mbiwa, Cole; Rossi, Nainggolan, Ucan; Doumbia, Totti, Gervinho
