For once I will start with the formation from the attack. Eto should start as centre forward as he is in hunt of Pichichi. He has looked in awful touch lately and it is essential for Barca to have him find his goal scoring form. So the solution is not to rest him but to play him. He most probably should be substituted towards the latter part of match. Pedro should start in the right with Messi coming on late in the second half. Bojan would ideally be my choice at left and should be motivated to continue his good form as a place in Rome is beckoning. Xavi should be rested for tonight's match as he has been overworked lately. Gudjonsen, Torres and Hleb should ideally form the midfield. For me the defense should start the way Guardiola want to line up in Rome. I expect Toure and Pique to play in centre. Puyol should start as the right back and Sylvinho/Caceres at the left. Valdes definitely should start at goal as he needs to be synched with the defense. Resting the entire elevn which would start in Rome could be tricky as I believe many would need some playing time to get into form. With such a team also FC Barcelona should see off Osasuna comfortably. I predict a Barcelona victory with a score line of 3-1.
