Marc-André ter Stegen is set to return to action tonight as Barcelona face Dynamo Kyiv in the Champions League group stages.
Ter Stegen was ruled out for several months in August following a knee injury which had been causing him trouble since the start of the year.
His last match for Barcelona was in the quarter final of the Champions League as the Catalan giants faced off against Bayern Munich at the Camp Nou.
Barcelona crashed out of the Champions League after a devastating 8-2 loss at the hands of Hansi Flick’s Bayern.
The German shot stopper will be keen to avenge this loss and end the clubs 5 year drought in the hunt for a Champions League title.
Brazilian international, Neto has took the reigns during Ter Stegen’s absence making 8 appearances so far this season.
Whilst Barcelona’s form has been well below par in La Liga, their performances in the Champions league have been faultless.
Barca are currently two wins from two in this seasons competition after beating Hungarian side Ferencvárosi in the opener and Pirlo’s Juventus just last week.
In doing so Ronald Koeman’s side have only conceded 1 goal which came as a penalty in a 5-1 victory against Ferencvárosi.
Due to Neto’s impressive start in the European campaign it is unknown whether or not Ter Stegen will start tonight against Dynamo Kyiv.
Nonetheless, Barcelona have confirmed that the German international is in the squad for the fixture, with Ter Stegen posting on Instagram that he was ready to return.
