On Sunday, Barcelona will be hosting Valencia at Camp Nou. The Catalans need the three points after their unfortunate loss to Almeria last week. However, Los Che will certainly put up a fight as every point is valuable for a relegation-battling team.
Here are the key things to know ahead of the match.
Team news
Barcelona
Barca have already confirmed their squad for the game. Gavi is suspended while Robert Lewandowski, Ousmane Dembele, and Pedri are out with injuries.
Besides, Xavi will skip the match due to yellow card accumulation.
Valencia
The visitors will travel to Camp Nou without Edinson Cavani, Jose Gaya, Nico Gonzalez, Gabriel Paulista, Marcos Andre and Jaume Domenech, all sidelined with injuries.
This will also be Ilaix Moriba's first return to Camp Nou after his problematic departure back in 2021.
