Barcelona underlined their status as one of the favourites to win the competition with another convincing performance, just days after beating La Liga rivals Real Madrid 4-0 in the Bernabeu.
Messi scored twice in his first start in two months and Suarez now has 14 goals in the last 12 matches.
The trio of Neymar, Suarez and Messi mesmerised Roma's defence at the Nou Camp. The three were heavily involved in three of Barcelona's six goals on a night when coach Luis Enrique's side could have had a lot more.
Neymar, whose penalty was saved by Wojciech Szczesny before Adriano followed up, still played an integral part. The Brazil forward, who has scored 39 goals in 2015 for Barça. Neymar, Suarez and Messi have now scored 119 goals in the calendar year.
Suarez said that Leo, Neymar and he are team players and they look to help the team. Messi is the best in the world and I am very happy for him to have scored and played the full match.
The Catalan club are now nine games unbeaten.
Maicon and the rest of the Roma defence were on the back foot for the majority of the match.
The coach of Roma, Rudi Garcia, said that right now Barca is unstoppable, it's not a coincidence that they beat Madrid 4-0.
And he said also that for them the good news arrived before the match. The draw between Leverkusen and BATE keeps their options alive.
A victory for Roma at home over Bate Borisov in the final match would secure their passage into the knockout round.
I think that Barça did a perfect match against Roma. The players, of Barcelona, felt very well over the lawn.
The turned of Messi is very good for the team. I think that this year Barça can win all the titles because they are doing a good job in each match and there are good vibes in the wardrobe.
