Ousmane Dembélé (Unknown Injury), Neto (Sprained ankle), Martin Braithwaite (Ankle Injury), Philippe Coutinho (Rupture of Outer Meniscus) and Moussa Wagué (Patella rupture) will not be able to play for Barcelona boss Ronald Koeman.

📰 Team News: Getafe

Getafe boss José Bordalás has to contend with a number of unavailable players. Erick Cabaco (Knee Injury) and Cucho (Metatarsal Fracture) will not be playing here.

⚡ Prediction

We’ve got the feeling that Barcelona will most probably have the majority of the possession and should be able to turn a few of their chances into goals.

In contrast, Getafe won’t find it easy to find the back of the net although we do see them seeing enough of the ball to score, too.

We therefore think that it’s going to be a decent 3-1 margin for Barcelona at the end of the 90 minutes.
