Preseason: FC Barcelona vs Athletic Bilbao, Camp Nou, Sunday, August 23 2009, 22:00 CET

Barca's first final of the season is the second leg of the Spanish Supercup against Athletic Bilbao, and we're in this to win. We have a strong feeling Barca will be getting the season's first silver tonight, as we go into this match with a 2-1 lead and on our own turf... not to mention that several of our stars who were injured for the first leg will be able to play this one. And the fact that Athletic have several sidelined stars as well...

Pep's up to something tonight, having refused to announce which players he'll call up for this match - something he would have usually done long before now. No, he's keeping it till the last minute, so we'll just have to wait and see... what we do know is that Marquez and Iniesta are still recovering from injury, and won't play. The rest of the players are ready, with B-teamers Oier, Fontas, Muniesa, Jonathan and Jeffren also training with the senior squad.
