Barcelona is set to host Osasuna as they seek a seventh consecutive La Liga victory. They currently lead the table, sitting one point ahead of Atletico Madrid and three clear of Real Madrid.
Hansi Flick’s squad comes off a 1-0 Champions League win against Benfica. Now, they shift focus back to the domestic front, hoping to maintain their lead.
Andreas Christensen remains a minor doubt due to a calf injury. The defender, who has played just once this season, has been medically cleared and could feature.
Pau Cubarsí Bernal is ruled out for the rest of the season with an ACL injury. The young defender sustained the setback earlier in the campaign and is focused on recovery.
Gavi, who missed the last two matches due to illness, is expected to return against Osasuna. The midfielder was sidelined with a fever but has recovered in time.
Marc-André ter Stegen continues his recovery from a knee injury suffered in September. While he has resumed training, a return date remains uncertain.
Barcelona will be pleased to have no players suspended for this fixture. Flick will have several key options available as his team pushes for another league win.
Osasuna, currently sitting 11th in the table, will look to challenge Barcelona’s momentum. However, the Catalan side remains firm favorites to extend their winning streak.
