The Brazilian replaces Achraf Hakimi in defence after he picked up his third yellow card of the competition during the last-16 victory over Real Sociedad.
Warren Zaire-Emery is on the bench with Lee Kang-in chosen to partner Fabian Ruiz and Vitinha in midfield.
Kylian Mbappe, who is widely expected to join Barcelona’s eternal rivals Real Madrid this summer, leads the line while Ousmane Dembele faces his old club.
Barcelona, meanwhile, have handed Frenkie de Jong a place in their starting line-up.
