Spanish side FC Barcelona's French defender Jeremy Mathieu will miss Wednesday's Champions League semi-final first leg match against German giants Bayern Munich due to a problem with his Achilles tendon.

Coach Luis Enrique will otherwise have a full squad at his disposal, the club's official website reported on Tuesday, reports Efe.

Among the featured players in the squad is Belgian defender Thomas Vermaelen who will return to action after a long injury layoff for Wednesday's tie at the Camp Nou Stadium here.
