FC Barcelona Team News at Alaves: Inigo Martinez, Eric Garcia, Frenkie De Jong

By

There are only two possible changes to the FC Barcelona squad that will play at Alaves on Sunday. Inigo Martinez is an injury doubt, in his own words, so we'll see if his passes his late fitness test or not. Elsewhere Eric Garcia was suspended for the 5-0 rout of Young Boys on Tuesday night, so having missed out in midweek, he'll be fresh and sharp for this one. Beyond … [Read more...] about FC Barcelona Team News at Alaves: Inigo Martinez, Eric Garcia, Frenkie De Jong

FC Barcelona Starting XI Prediction at Osasuna

By

Thus far, the injury crisis at FC Barcelona has not truly caught up to them. They are still top of the table, and unblemished in the league. Will they stay perfect when they visit Osasuna on Saturday? The latest addition to the treatment room is nothing short of calamitous- first choice goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen. He is now done for the season. How will the Blaugranes … [Read more...] about FC Barcelona Starting XI Prediction at Osasuna

FC Barcelona Team News at Osasuna: Ter Stegen, Kochen, Gavi, De Jong

By

The news regarding starting goalkeeper Marc-Andre Ter Stegen has been released, and unfortunately, it is indeed the worst case scenario. Having suffered a full tear of the patellar tendon (an injury that many would say is even worse than an anterior cruciate ligament tear), he is done for the remainder of the season. That means Inaki Pena is now the first choice … [Read more...] about FC Barcelona Team News at Osasuna: Ter Stegen, Kochen, Gavi, De Jong

FC Barcelona Starting XI Prediction vs Getafe

By

FC Barcelona manager Hansi Flick did some squad rotation on the weekend, as the La Liga fixtures keep coming thick and fast. Another clash, this time a visit from Getafe, will be here before you know it. Critics of the fixture congestion/overloading of the schedule/the toll that it's taking/will take on players have plenty of material to work with. Ferran Torres, Marc … [Read more...] about FC Barcelona Starting XI Prediction vs Getafe

FC Barcelona Team News at AS Monaco: Olmo, Fati, Gavi, Lopez

By

FC Barcelona remain perfect on the young season, and they sit top of the La Liga table with a nice four point lead. It's a remarkable start for the Catalan Club, considering all the injury problems they have, with Dani Olmo now the latest concern. The splash summer signing suffered a thigh injury in yesterday's Catalonia derby, and now finds himself on the shelf until after … [Read more...] about FC Barcelona Team News at AS Monaco: Olmo, Fati, Gavi, Lopez

Barcelona Team News at Girona: Gavi, De Jong, Olmo, Lopez

By

It is a Catalan derby miracle! Very positive injury news, for both Gavi and Frenkie De Jong! Especially Gavi, who has returned to training this week. This is the first time he has trained since tearing his ACL about 10 months ago. Don't expect him to feature at Girona though, as he still has to be eased back into it all. His return to action is still a couple, to a few weeks … [Read more...] about Barcelona Team News at Girona: Gavi, De Jong, Olmo, Lopez

FC Barcelona Starting XI Prediction vs Valladolid

By

You can't ask for a better debut if you're Dani Olmo. Signed before the season started, but not registered to play, due to salary cap problems, Olmo missed the first two games. But he came off the bench to score the second and game winning goal at Rayo Vallecano. After playing a half last night, does he start against Valladolid? We're thinking yes. Why not keep this positive … [Read more...] about FC Barcelona Starting XI Prediction vs Valladolid
