After their great result against Atletico Madrid last weekend, Barcelona will face off against RCD Mallorca on Saturday night at Nou Camp.
Barcelona have won all of their home matches in the league this season and they go into this game as the favourites.
Let’s take a look at the possible Barcelona lineup for the game against RCD Mallorca.
Team News: Jordi Alba and Nelson Semedo will both miss the game against Mallorca due to injury, while Ousmane Dembele will also be unavailable for over a month.
Sergio Busquets will return to the Barcelona team after serving his one-match ban against Atletico Madrid.
Marc-André ter Stegen kept his first clean sheet in four games in La Liga last time around against Atletico Madrid. He should start once again on Saturday night.
Gerard Piqué was substituted due to a knock during the game against Atletico Madrid, but he should be fit enough for this weekend’s game. Pique will join Clément Lenglet at the back. Júnior Firpo should start at left-back for Barcelona on Saturday, while Sergi Roberto should continue at right-back for the Catalans.
Sergio Busquets missed the last game due to suspension, but he should return for this weekend’s game against Mallorca. He should replace Ivan Rakitic in the middle of the park. Frenkie de Jong and Arthur started alongside Rakitic in midfield, and we could see those two retain their places in the Barcelona midfield.
Arturo Vidal is another option for Valverde in the middle of the park.
Lionel Messi scored the only goal of the game between Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, with the winner coming in the dying moments of the game. Messi should start on the right, while Luis Suarez – who assisted Messi’s goal – should start as the main striker.
Antoine Griezmann did not have a very good game in his first return to Atletico Madrid, but with Ousmane Dembele injured, Barcelona do not have too many options out wide. He should retain his place in the starting XI.
