The next Barcelona match is upon us! The Blaugrana travel to Seville for a huge La Liga game against Real Betis at La Cartuja, and Hansi Flick has called up the following 23 players for Tuesday’s clash:
Goalkeepers: 13. Joan Garcia, 25. Wojciech Szczesny, 33. Eder Aller
Defenders: 3. Alejandro Balde, 5. Pau Cubarsí, 15. Andreas Christensen, 18. Gerard Martín, 23. Jules Kounde, 24. Eric Garcia, 26. Jofre Torrents
Midfielders: 8. Pedri, 16. Fermín López, 17. Marc Casadó, 21. Frenkie de Jong, 22. Marc Bernal, 27. Dro Fernández, 43. Tommy Marqués
Forwards: 7. Ferran Torres, 9. Robert Lewandowski, 10. Lamine Yamal, 11. Raphinha, 14. Marcus Rashford, 28. Roony Bardghji
There’s some very good news for this one as Barça get two crucial midfield reinforcements in Frenkie de Jong, back after a bout with the flu, and Fermín López, who’s recovered from a minor calf issue and is back in the squad. That leaves only four first team players out for this one, as Marc-André ter Stegen (back), Dani Olmo (shoulder) and Gavi (knee) are ruled out through injury while Ronald Araujo remains away from the team for mental health reasons.
Predicted starting XI (4-2-3-1):
Joan; Kounde, Cubarsí, Martín, Balde; Eric, Pedri; Yamal, Raphinha, Rashford; Ferran
The match kicks off at 6.30pm CET/WAT (Barcelona & Nigeria), 5.30pm GMT (UK), 12.30pm ET, 9.30am PT (USA), 11pm IST (India), and you can join us to follow and comment all the action.
