Official: Barcelona squad list against Getafe

Barcelona will be hoping to get back to winning ways as they make the trip to Madrid to take on Getafe for gameweek 29th of La Liga. They are currently 13 points clear on top of the table, and could seal La Liga in the next few matchdays, starting tomorrow.

However, Xavi still has a fair few players sidelined for this clash, starting with Ousmane Dembele, who is expected to return in a fortnight to face either Rayo Vallecano or Real Betis.

Pedri, too, is injured, and will not be traveling with the team. The Spaniard picked up a relapse into his injury just before the clash against Real Madrid in the league, and therefore, had to be ruled out for a few more weeks.

Robert Lewandowski has been playing with muscle discomfort, most recently picking up a knock on his spine against Real Madrid after a blow from Eder Militao. He is included in the squad list, though, and will likely start, too.

Barcelona have the services of most of the backline except Andreas Christensen, who is suffering from a hamstring injury. Xavi has not called up a replacement for the Danish defender, with Ronald Araujo, Jules Kounde, Eric Garcia, and Marcos Alonso fit.

Another absence from the squad list is Frenkie de Jong, who could be back to face Atletico Madrid next weekend if his recovery goes according to plan.

Pablo Torre, Angel Alarcon, and Aleix Garrido are among the travellers from the youth teams, with Estanis Pedrola dropped.
