Pep Guardiola brings his Barcelona squad to Scotland for the annual tour that starts the Spanish giants pre-season campaign. New signings Alexander Hleb, Gerard Pique and Dani Alves have made the trip in what is considered to be a new era for Barcelona following the departures of Frank Rijkaard and Ronaldinho to AC Milan. With Lionel Messi and Thierry Henry in the squad though, Barca are likely to be one of the main challengers for the La Liga title as well as looking to progress far in the Champions League. Hibernian were disappointed to lose on two legs to Elfsborg in the Intertoto cup and a win against Barca could restore some pride ahead of the new campaign.
