Barça will be without Fermín López for the season finale with a foot injury that will also sideline him for the World Cup, and he joins Lamine Yamal (hamstring) on the absentee list for this one. Raphinha and Jules Kounde also don’t travel to make sure they are fit for the World Cup, but there are good news as Frenkie de Jong and Ferran Torres return after missing out last week.
Predicted starting XI (4-2-3-1):
Joan; Eric, Cubarsí, Martín, Cancelo; De Jong, Pedri; Roony, Olmo, Gavi; Ferran
The match kicks off at 9pm CET/WAT (Barcelona), 8pm BST/WAT (UK & Nigeria), 3pm ET, 12pm PT (USA), 12.30am IST (India, Sunday), and you can join us to follow and comment all the action.
