BAR vs SLPG Dream11 : Plucky, resilient and guile filled Slavia Praha look to curb Barcelona today

They might not be in the running for a qualification sport from the group, but if anyone deserves to be hailed and lauded for the way they have conducted themselves in the ongoing edition of the Champions League, its lowly ranked Salvia Praha. The side entered the dramatic land of the marquee competition grouped alongside Barcelona, Inter Milan and Borussia Dortmund, a narrative which saw many dismissing them and touting them to be trounced and routed in all their clashes.
Albeit to the widely expected turn of events, the side have made an advent into the tournamnet with immense determination, vigour, valour and fight. They managed to hold off Inter Milan to a draw in their tournamnet opener before making things extremely jittery for Barcelona in the two teams’ bygone encounter, a fixture which saw Barcelona needing to dive deep into their repertoire of skill set to pull off a 2-1 win.

And when the two teams meet again today inside the space of two week, Slavia Praha will be looking to emulate those same attributes which have seen them being held in such reverence. Barcelona meanwhile will be looking to move one step closer to assuring themselves of qualification from the group with a win giving them 10 points and seeing them remain in the pinnacles of Group F.

BAR vs SLPG Dream11 Goal-Keeper
We went with him for the previous match and after a succulent display which saw him live up to the faith we entrusted in him, Slavia Praha’s goal-keeper comes into our side once again for this one. Ondrej Kolar has pulled off a slew of saves to see his side keep battling it out in their encounters with his consistency and reliability making him an instant pick.
BAR vs SLPG Dream11 Defenders
Although Barcelona have shown that they are always prone to committing errors at the back and moving onto concede goals, the side look way the likelier unit to emerge out of this match unscathed and with a cleansheet. The superiority of their side is undoutable as compared to their opponents and with the side envisioned to reign supreme today, we are going in with Charles Lenglet and Nelson Semedo from the side for this one.
The one player comes in from the opposition as well with us opting to venture into the match with Jan Boril.

The one reason why Slavia Praha have been able to dismiss all preconceived notions around them is due to the fearless and ruthless brand of football they come equipped with.

We go in for a duo from the side with us moving in for the myriad Nicola Stanciu and Lukas Masopust for this clash, two enigmatic and vibrant players who have utilised their calibre to rake up goals for the side. From the home side meanwhile we are choosing Frenkie de Jong and Ousmane Dembele with him set play in this one after Luis Suarez was ruled out due to an injury.

Lionel Messi and Antoine Griezmann are our picks for this one from the home side with the two players extremely likely to score atleast the one goal in between them against a side which has continued to waver defensively. From the opposition we have gone in with the singular player, brining in extradonaire Peter Olayinka for this match.
