According to Spanish newspaper Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona will face Espanyol at home in this round, welcoming the Catalan Derby. However, head coach Flick has already made the decision to make extensive personnel changes to save strength for the midweek Champions League match.
It is reported that De Jong, Olmo, and Gavi, who have just recovered from injuries, will all get ample playing time. However, due to the risk associated with Gavi’s recent recovery from a serious injury, Flick will not yet start him as a precaution. In terms of the goalkeeper position, Szczesny still has not been given a chance, and Peña will continue to start.
