Barcelona head coach Xavi said on Monday, that 'he is confident' his side can change their recent record against Bayern Munich tomorrow.

Alongside losing 3-0 home and away in the group stages last season, Barcelona were infamously hammered 8-2 by Bayern in the 2019/20 campaign, in the neutral setting of Lisbon.

In total, Barcelona have lost their last four games against Bayern, with just one win in their last eight, and no victories in Germany.

Despite the odds stacked against Barcelona, Xavi believes his side are beginning to reach their potential, and his young stars will do battle with Julian Nagelsmann’s all star hosts.

“Many things have changed (since we last faced Bayern), especially the mentality”, according to reports.

Xavi noted, “I told them this is Barça and we need to show personality and we have grown in our mentality."

“The signings also improve us and the victories this season give us confidence," he explained. 

Xavi added, “We’re excited and we can win this game and change history."
