Ernesto Valverde's side won their opening game of the International Champions Cup against Juventus thanks to a brace by Brazilian forward Neymar.
The Paris Saint-Germain target scored two quickfire first-half goals before Giorgio Chiellini pulled one back for the Old Lady after the break.
Their attentions now turn to Jose Mourinho's Manchester United who go into the Washington DC clash on the back of beating Barcelona's rivals Real Madrid on penalties.
Neymar is expected to take part in Wednesday's fixture at the FedExField despite his future being up in the air.
Valverde has poured cold water over reports suggesting the 25-year-old is closing in on a move to PSG by insisting he is an invaluable member of Barcelona's first team.
'We want Neymar with us,' said Valverde.
'We know his value on the pitch and what he brings to the locker room.'
