The 5 key players of FC Barcelona to face Las Palmas

Matchday 30 of La Liga pits FC Barcelona against UD Las Palmas in a crucial match for the Barça aspirations. With its sights set on the top of the standings, Barça needs a victory and to do so, it will depend on the performance of its most outstanding players.

In this article, we will analyze the key pieces of the culé team that will be decisive in securing the three points in this vibrant match.

Robert Lewandowski

Now more than ever the Blaugrana team needs his scoring contribution. Although this is not his best season in terms of contribution to the game, the Polish striker has scored 20 goals and conveys the feeling of scoring every chance he gets, so he will have to demonstrate that ability in this duel if Xavi's team Hernández wants to take the three points from this duel against Las Palmas.

Ilkay Gundogan

The German stands as the team's main figure in the center of the field given the numerous casualties in that area. The midfielder brings his great experience to a fairly young squad, which, together with his quality and feeling as a leader, make him an indispensable player for the team right now.

Lamine Yamal

The young winger has been indisputable in the last few games for Xavi Hernández. Furthermore, given the numerous casualties that the team currently has, he must show himself as one of the most important pillars of the team in the attacking zone. His ability to overwhelm and the great technique he has in his left boot will be key in this match against the colchoneros.

Joao Felix

Without Pedri and De Jong, the Portuguese will have to be in his best version of distributing the game, being able to face up, play 1v1 and be able to look for the gaps in the defense in favor of Barcelona. Anything other than that, with a much more immobile Lewandowski, and a midfield that is not the usual one, could be a stumbling block for the culés.

Marc-André ter Stegen

The German goalkeeper is a guarantee under the three suits. His agility, feline reflexes and confidence in the aerial game make him one of the best goalkeepers in the world. Ter Stegen will be key to keeping Barcelona's goal clean and avoiding any attempt by Las Palmas' forwards.
