Barcelona continue their pre-season tour of the Far East today with a friendly against South Korean side Daegu.
It is another useful warm-up exercise for Hansi Flick and his players, who have looked good in their previous two games – a 3-1 win over Kobe followed by Thursday’s 7-3 hammering of FC Seoul.
Barcelona open the defence of their La Liga campaign at home to Real Mallorca on Saturday, August 16.

Teenage sensation Pedro Fernandez is included in the starting XI after impressing on the tour so far.
Fernandez, known as ‘Dro’, looks to be the next starlet to emerge from La Masia and he will get the chance to strengthen his claim for a regular spot this evening in Korea.
He did not play against FC Seoul but scored and looked lively against Kobe.
Dro will play in an attacking three also comprising Lamine Yamal and Raphinha behind Robert Lewandowski.
