FC Basel vs Barcelona LIVE streaming, TV channel, kick-off time & where to watch pre-season friendly
The Catalan giants will play their penultimate pre-season game today.
Barcelona are just one week from playing their first official match of the 2026–27 season, before their penultimate pre-season friendly against Swiss team Basel tonight.
Before travelling to England for a 2–2 tie with Tom Brady’s Birmingham City, La Blaugrana began the summer by crushing Catalan minnows CE Europa behind closed doors. They played Nottingham Forest and Udinese in rapid succession last weekend, defeating the former 1-0 before falling to the latter by the same goal.
Although the new La Liga season has already begun, Barcelona have been given more time to prepare because so many of its key players were playing in the World Cup final.
This allows them to play two additional warm-up games, beginning against Basel before Wednesday’s Joan Gamper Trophy encounter against Egyptian team Al Ahly.
Many Spanish World Cup winners have been welcomed back by Hansi Flick.
