Official: Barcelona squad list against Real Madrid

Barcelona travel to the Santiago Bernabeu in the heart of the Spanish capital, Madrid, to lock horns with Real Madrid for gameweek 29 of La Liga.

Both teams are on an impressive run of form, and while Los Blancos and the Blaugranes are having vastly different seasons, all if even during El Clasico.

Xavi has announced his 23-man squad list that will make the trip to Madrid, featuring Gerard Pique. The Spaniard came off vs Galatasaray in the final stages of the game, and was reportedly feeling discomfort. He will, however, be ready for tomorrow.

Sergino Dest picked up a hamstring injury during midweek and does not make the cut for tomorrow’s flight. He misses out, along with Ansu Fati, Sergi Roberto, and Samuel Umtiti.

All the usual suspects are included, with Nico making the cut this time around after missing the Osasuna game due to suspension. Gavi and Arnau Tenas are the only youth team players included.
