Barcelona's and Celta's lineup
Barcelona enter the midweek LaLiga round needing to restore their lead over Real Madrid, who have already won, and take another step toward the title.
How do Barcelona and Celta arrive?
Hansi Flick’s side come into the match after a painful Champions League exit, but riding a seven-game winning streak in LaLiga.
A victory could strengthen their chances of clinching the title before—or even in—El Clásico, though Getafe and Osasuna still await before then.
Meanwhile, Celta Vigo sit sixth, but have lost four of their last five matches and are coming off elimination in the Europa League.
Focus on Lamine Yamal
Much of the attention will be on Lamine Yamal, who remains one of Barcelona’s most important attacking threats in a match that could impact the title race.
Predicted lineups
Barcelona
Joan García; Koundé, Cubarsí, Gerard Martín, Cancelo; Pedri, Eric or De Jong; Lamine Yamal, Fermín, Dani Olmo; Ferran Torres or Robert Lewandowski.
Celta Vigo
Radu; Álvaro Núñez, Javi Rodríguez, Marcos Alonso, Carreira; Rueda, Moriba, Sotelo, Mingueza; Iago Aspas, Williot Swedberg, Jutglá.
