Lamine Yamal will play, Hansi Flick said in the preview, but he will do so coming on as a refresher. Because the winger is not among the eleven chosen by the German coach to start the game against Las Palmas.
The youth player has missed the last three games due to a right ankle injury and does not want to take risks with him, so it has been decided that he enters with the duel already started. The same thing happens with Dani Olmo, after he started and scored one of the three goals against Brest in the Champions League last Tuesday.
The Cantabrian has three goals
Pablo Torre had not entered the lineup since September
The two substitutions leave room for Pablo Torre and Fermín to start as starters against the Canaries. Fermín, who already occupied the left wing of the attack against Brest, remains in the eleven and is his fifth start of the season, all between October and November. While Torre had not been in the lineup since September when he started in three games.
In midfield, Gavi’s entry is a change forced by the suspension of Marc Casadó, sent off in Vigo. The other novelty is the return of Balde as left back since in the last two games the position had been occupied by Gerard Martín.
Fixed
Pedri remains unchanged in the engine room and the presence of Lewandowski, starter in all 20 games, as an offensive reference
What remains unchanged is having Pedri in the engine room for the twelfth game in a row and the presence of Lewandowski as an offensive reference. The Pole, scorer of 22 goals, has started all 20 games this season.
On the bench, in addition to Lamine Yamal and Dani Olmo, De Jong, Ferran Torres and Eric Garcia are waiting for their opportunity. The last two have just been discharged.
Barça plays with Iñaki Peña, Koundé, Cubarsí, Iñigo Martínez, Balde, Gavi, Pedri, Pablo Torre, Raphinha, Fermín and Lewandowski.
