Barcelona want revenge against Chelsea

FC Barcelona players are aware that the match against Chelsea will be the chance to revenge the loss in the last Champions League edition. So everybody hopes Ronaldinho and his teammates will get the victory on Wednesday.

Chelsea will have John Terry, Frank Lampard and Petr Cech back after they missed the FA Cup clash with Colchester.

Asier del Horno also returns but William Gallas (hamstring) and Claude Makelele (knee) are doubts. Michael Essien is suspended for both legs.

Barcelona may start with Mark van Bommel and Thiago Motta in midfield and leave Lionel Messi on the bench.

Edmilson and Deco are expected to complete the four-man midfield but winger Ludovic Giuly is injured.

Line ups:

Chelsea: Cech, Gallas, Ferreira, Carvalho, Terry, Del Horno, Gudjohnsen, Lampard, Makelele, Geremi), Robben, Crespo, Cole, Duff

Barcelona: Valdes, Belletti, Oleguer, Puyol, Marquez, Silvinho, Van Bronckhorst, Van Bommel, Motta, Messi, Edmilson, Deco, Ronaldinho, Eto'o
