Barcelona and Nottingham Forest are preparing to meet in a preseason encounter unlike anything else taking place across the continent.
The two clubs, alongside Udinese, will compete in the first-ever Friuli Venezia Giulia Cup, a triangular preseason competition featuring three consecutive 45-minute games. Udinese open proceedings against Forest, before the English outfit then squares off with Barcelona.
Hansi Flick's squad then wraps up the round-robin schedule against Udinese at the Bluenergy Stadium in Udine, Italy.
Barcelona head into their encounter with Forest having played just one preseason friendly, a 2–2 draw with Birmingham City that ended in a 3–2 penalty defeat. Oliver Glasner's team, on the other hand, secured wins over Notts County and Blackburn Rovers before suffering a heavy 4–1 loss to Celtic.
Here's everything you need to know about how to watch the friendly.
