Five Barcelona players at risk of missing Valladolid clash due to suspension

Barcelona will take on Real Sociedad tonight in one of their last two home matches of the season. RFEF president Luis Rubiales will be present at Camp Nou and will formally present Barcelona with the trophy.

However, despite only four matches remaining until the end of the season, some of the Barcelona players must still proceed with caution as they are facing the risk of suspension due to the accumulation of yellow cards.

There are, in fact, five Barça players who are running the risk of missing the next game against Real Valladolid next midweek.

The players in question are Ferran Torres, Ousmane Dembele, Franck Kessie, Jordi Alba and Alejandro Balde.

All the five aforementioned players have picked up four yellow cards this season, meaning another booking against Real Sociedad tonight could see them being suspended for the next game.

Barcelona coach Xavi Hernandez is already set to miss out on the services of Gavi tonight as the youngster picked up ten yellow cards for the season. He will look to avoid a similar situation with any of the five players in the coming game against Valladolid.

The likes of Torres and Dembele have been facing the risk for a while now, though. But they could miss the next game with a booking nonetheless.

It must be noted that players such as Kessie and Ferran are going to get chances during this final stretch of the campaign despite being linked with a move away from Camp Nou this summer. So it could be imperative for them to remain available and end the season in a positive manner.

Alba, meanwhile, would not want to miss out on any of these last few matches as he could well be playing his final season for Barcelona.
