Argentine ace Messi has been nursing a leg problem over the past few days, which forced him to miss the Super Cup win over Athletic Bilbao on Sunday.

Barca said that Messi has fully recovered from injury and is set to play against City on Wednesday, along with new signing Ibrahimovic.

Ibra will make his Barca debut following a hand operation that forced him to be ruled out of the Catalans' pre-season program.
