Line-ups: APOEL-Barcelona

Neymar and Sergio Busquets are among the players dropped by Barcelona for tonight's trip to APOEL in the Champions League.

The pair started the Catalan giants' 5-1 demolition of Sevilla at the weekend, but their places have been taken by Javier Mascherano and Pedro Rodriguez. Barca's other change sees Marc-Andre ter Stegen replace Claudio Bravo in goal.

APOEL, meanwhile, have failed to score in their last three matches, yet Coach Giorgos Donis has opted to keep the faith in his charges, with Efstathios Alonefitis the only newcomer to the XI.
