Good evening and welcome to Eurosport's LIVE coverage of the Champions League last 16 first leg between Lyon and Barcelona. We'll bring you all the action as it happens. Kick off is at 20:00.

This has the potential to be one of the ties of the round. Lyon have the ability to give Barcelona real problems.

Not long until kick off at the OL Stadium now. Sounds like a great atmosphere. The home fans are up for this one.

Barcelona are expected to be one of the favourites to win this season's Champions League, but they have shown signs of weariness in recent weeks. Will that be a factor tonight?

Injury news! Mendy has taken a knock in the warm up. He appeared to collide with Marcelo and now seems to be limping. Might Lyon be forced into a late change to their lineup?

I'm Graham Ruthven and you can catch me on Twitter ahead of the match to let me know your thoughts. Can Lyon give themselves a chance of making the quarter finals? Tweet me!

Dembele starts! The French winger has struggled with injury of late, but Valverde has picked him over Coutinho to face Lyon this evening. Vidal and Alena drop out of the Barca team.
