TIMELINE

How Barcelona could line up against Real Madrid

By , European Football Editor | 3d
Sports Mole looks at how Barcelona could line up when they travel to Real Madrid in La Liga on Saturday night.

Barcelona will be looking to pile more misery on Real Madrid when they travel to the Bernabeu in La Liga on Saturday night.

It will be the second meeting between the two teams in the space of three days, with Barca running out 3-0 winners in the second leg of their Copa del Rey semi-final on Wednesday night.

The victory at the Bernabeu saw Barca advance to the final courtesy of a 4-1 aggregate success, while they will enter this match top of La Liga, some nine points ahead of third-placed Madrid.

Barca thumped their rivals 5-1 at Camp Nou in the league earlier this season, while the Catalan outfit recorded a 3-0 victory when they last travelled to the Bernabeu in the league in the latter stages of 2017.

Here, Sports Mole has taken a look at how Barca could line up as they visit Los Blancos once again.


Out: Rafinha (knee), Thomas Vermaelen (muscle)

Barca's injury list has eased in recent weeks, with Rafinha and Thomas Vermaelen now the only two first-team players currently unavailable for selection.

Arthur made his return from injury off the bench on Wednesday night and the Brazilian could now be handed a spot in the starting XI alongside Ivan Rakitic and Sergio Busquets in the middle of the park.

Samuel Umtiti returned in the 4-2 win over Sevilla last weekend, meanwhile, and having been left out of the clash on Wednesday, the Frenchman could be named in the XI for this Clasico.

Philippe Coutinho is pushing for a spot in the team, but it seems likely that Ousmane Dembele - outstanding in the second half of the last Clasico - will keep his position alongside Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez in the final third of the field.
