Team News:

• Gavi, Marc-André ter Stegen, and Pedri will be unavailable for the home side due to their respective injuries.
• Alavés, on the other hand, will have their entire squad available for selection.

Player(s) to watch:

• Lamine Yamal took the world by storm last season. He was dubbed the best player in the world by many despite his young age, as the winger was just unplayable at times. He will be donning the iconic number 10 jersey this season, and huge expectations will be on his shoulders. He has already registered six goals and eight assists in the 2025-26 season so far.
• Antonio Sivera has been one of the top performers for Alavés this season. The 29-year-old goalkeeper has already kept two clean sheets this season. Considering the attacking threat of Barcelona, he needs to deliver a very strong performance. Alavés have an underwhelming defensive record, and the club will look at their goalkeeper to rescue them against the Blaugrana.
