Barcelona team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Celta Vigo

Barcelona injury, suspension list vs. Celta Vigo

Barcelona will be looking to put an end to their disappointing recent record away to Celta Vigo in Saturday evening's La Liga clash.

The Catalan giants, who sealed back-to-back titles with last weekend's 1-0 victory over Levante, have failed to win any of their last three visits to Balaidos.

With the title already in the bag, Ernesto Valverde will have one eye on Tuesday's second leg of his side's Champions League semi-final with Liverpool, which Barca lead 3-0 from the first leg.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest injury and suspension news for Valverde's side.

BARCELONA'S INJURY LIST


Rafinha

Status: Out Type of injury: Knee Possible return date: Unknown

Rafinha has been sidelined since November after rupturing his cruciate ligament and will not return before the end of the season - the visitors' only injury concern.


BARCELONA'S SUSPENSION LIST

Barca will be without key midfield men Sergio Busquets and Ivan Rakitic for Saturday's match, though Valverde would likely have left out both players anyway with the trip to Anfield on the horizon.
