How to watch the Club Friendlies match between Barcelona and Monaco, as well as kick-off time and team news.
FC Barcelona will wrap up their 2024/25 preseason campaign when they face Ligue 1 side AS Monaco in the Joan Gamper Trophy final.
The hosts have only played three friendly games so far this summer, kicking off their preparations for the new campaign with a 2-2 stalemate against reigning Premier League champions Manchester City at the end of July, before winning the resulting penalty shootout.
Hansi Flick's side then secured a 2-1 victory over Real Madrid, before playing out a 2-2 draw with AC Milan, losing on penalties to the Italian giants to conclude the United States pre-season tour.
The visitors, meanwhile, have played six friendlies this summer, opening with a narrow 1-0 victory over Servette in early July, before drawing their next two against Cercle Brugge and Sturm Graz. The principality side then won their next two games against Feyenoord and Club Brugge, but they come into this match off the back of a 2-1 defeat to Serie A side Genoa.
The Catalans will open their La Liga season at Valencia on August 17, while Monaco will begin their new domestic campaign at home against Saint-Etienne on the same day.

Barcelona vs Monaco kick-off time
Date: Monday, August 12, 2024
Kick-off time: 7 pm BST
Venue: Lluís Companys Olympic Stadium
The pre-season friendly match between Barcelona and Monaco will be played at the Lluís Companys Olympic Stadium in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain.
It will kick off at 7 pm BST on Monday, August 12, in the United Kingdom (UK).
Barcelona team news
New signing Dani Olmo is set to make his debut for the Catalan giants in Monday's coveted Joan Gamper Trophy clash against AS Monaco. The Spanish midfielder, who recently completed his transfer from RB Leipzig, participated in his first training session with the team on Saturday.
Olmo's potential inclusion in the starting lineup will be alongside established stars like Robert Lewandowski and Raphinha in attack.
Fermin Lopez, Eric Garcia, and Pau Cubarsi are still basking in the glory of Spain's Olympic gold medal triumph, with the trio handed extended breaks. The availability of Lamine Yamal and Ferran Torres, fresh off their Euro 2024 success, provides a boost to Hansi Flick's options.
Barcelona possible XI: Ter Stegen; Kounde, I Martinez, Lenglet, Balde; Casado, Gundogan, Christensen; OImo, Lewandowski, Raphinha
Monaco team news
Youssouf Fofana could be in action for Monaco despite ongoing speculation about his future, with both AC Milan and Manchester United reportedly interested in the French international.
Meanwhile, Vanderson has also been the subject of transfer rumours this summer, but he is expected to remain with the club and should start against Barcelona.
In the attacking lineup, Folarin Balogun and Breel Embolo are likely to lead the front line, while Ilenikhena may come off the bench in the second half to make an impact.
After starting pre-season with a mere nine senior players, Hansi Flick seemingly had his work cut out this summer, but with the help of La Masia, Barca were able to enjoy a hugely successful USA tour.
Barca scored an early victory over Real Madrid in another overseas Clasico and picked up draws against Manchester City and Milan to enjoy an unbeaten tour. They've since returned to Catalonia for Monday's encounter, with Flick's side opening their La Liga campaign away at Valencia on 17 August.
Barcelona will host a revamped edition of their traditional pre-season Catalan friendly tournament, set to take place before the upcoming season kicks off. This year’s event will feature a more intimate lineup, with only two teams participating: Barcelona and AS Monaco. While the match is friendly in nature, it’s one that fans won’t want to miss, as it offers a glimpse into both teams’ readiness for the season ahead.
After a disappointing 2023/2024 campaign, where they struggled to make an impact in any competition, Barcelona is eager to reestablish themselves as a competitive force. Meanwhile, AS Monaco, coming off a strong season as Ligue 1 runners-up and with a Champions League spot secured, are looking to fine-tune their squad for a challenging year ahead in both European and domestic competitions.
