Team news

Barcelona must return to winning ways in the league, especially after Real Madrid went six points clear at the top with their Madrid Derby victory over Atletico. While the Blaugrana will be without a few key names, they will be confident of winning.

Luis Suarez remains sidelined while this game comes too soon for Ousmane Dembele, who has returned to training. Otherwise, Setien has a full squad to choose from.

Arthur and Sergi Roberto are available to start, as is Samuel Umtiti, so it will be interesting to see how the manager selects his midfield. In attack, expect a front three of Fati, Griezmann, and Messi.

The away side, on the other hand, have quite a few absentees. Rober Pier, Oier Olazabal, Cheick Doukoure, and Ivan Lopez are all unavailable. Fortunately, though, Nemaja Radoja and Enis Bardhi could return.
