Barcelona team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Getafe

Sports Mole rounds up all of Barcelona's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Sunday's La Liga clash with Getafe.

Barcelona will look to extend their unbeaten La Liga record to three matches when they play host to Getafe on August 29.

The Catalan giants have collected four points from their opening two fixtures, a 4-2 win over Real Sociedad being followed by a draw at Athletic Bilbao.

While Barcelona are clear favourites to prevail against Getafe at Camp Nou, Ronald Koeman has increasing selection issues to contend with ahead of welcoming Azulones.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Barcelona's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their next contest.

Type of injury: Hamstring
Possible return date: August 29 (vs. Getafe)

After recently returning to training after a hamstring injury, Oscar Mingueza was always in line to return to the squad against Getafe. However, given Barcelona's troubles in the middle of the defence, he could emerge as an option from the start.
