🗞️ Team News: Barcelona

Pablo Torre (Knee problems), Jules Koundé (Hamstring injury) and Marc Bernal (Cruciate ligament tear) will not be taking part for Barcelona manager Hansi Flick.

It seems likely that Barça will probably make use of the 4-2-3-1 formation featuring Wojciech Szczesny, Eric Garcia, Pau Cubarsi, Inigo Martinez, Gerard Martin, Frenkie de Jong, Pedri, Lamine Yamal, Dani Olmo, Raphinha and Ferran Torres.

📰 Team News: Real Madrid

Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has to choose a team with limited availability. Ferland Mendy (Muscle injury), David Alaba (Meniscus tear), Antonio Rüdiger (Tear of the lateral meniscus), Eduardo Camavinga (Hamstring injury), Daniel Carvajal (Cruciate ligament tear) and Éder Militão (Cruciate ligament tear) are names that won’t be on the team sheet.

It’s our belief that Los Blancos could decide to elect for a 4-2-3-1 system, choosing Thibaut Courtois, Lucas Vazquez, Aurelien Tchouameni, Raul Asencio, Francisco Garcia, Federico Valverde, Daniel Ceballos, Arda Guler, Jude Bellingham, Vinicius Junior and Kylian Mbappe.

✨ Prediction

It seems to us that Real Madrid will do well to get a goal against a Barcelona side who should be able to score a lot of goals.

We are anticipating a comprehensive 3-0 win for Barcelona when the referee blows the final whistle.
