The next Barcelona match is upon us! The Blaugrana are back in La Liga action with a home game against Celta Vigo, and Hansi Flick has called up the following 23 players for Wednesday’s clash:
Goalkeepers: 13. Joan Garcia, 25. Wojciech Szczesny, 31. Diego Kochen
Defenders: 2. João Cancelo, 3. Alejandro Balde, 4. Ronald Araujo, 5. Pau Cubarsí, 18. Gerard Martín, 23. Jules Kounde, 24. Eric Garcia, 42. Xavi Espart
Midfielders: 6. Gavi, 8. Pedri, 16. Fermín López, 17. Marc Casadó, 20. Dani Olmo, 21. Frenkie
de Jong, 43. Tommy Marqués
Forwards: 7. Ferran Torres, 9. Robert Lewandowski, 10. Lamine Yamal, 14. Marcus Rashford, 19. Roony Bardghji
Barça get an important reinforcement for this one as Pau Cubarsí is back after serving a suspension in the Champions League exit against Atlético Madrid last week, but Barça are still without Marc Bernal who is not yet medically cleared from an ankle injury and joins Raphinha (hamstring) and Andreas Christensen (knee) on the absentee list.
Predicted starting XI (4-2-3-1):
Joan; Kounde, Cubarsí, Martín, Cancelo; Gavi, Pedri; Yamal, Olmo, Fermín; Ferran
The match kicks off at 9.30pm CET/WAT (Barcelona), 8.30pm BST/WAT (UK & Nigeria), 3.30pm ET, 12.30pm PT (USA), 1am IST (India, Thursday), and you can join us to follow and comment all the action.
VISCA EL BARÇA!
