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

Barcelona injury, suspension list vs. Celta Vigo

Having now assured themselves of Champions League qualification, Barcelona continue their La Liga campaign with the visit of Celta Vigo to Camp Nou on Tuesday night.

Xavi's side confirmed their place in the top four by beating Real Betis 2-1 on Saturday evening, as Ansu Fati and a late Jordi Alba winner cancelled out Marc Bartra's strike.

The Catalan giants have now tightened their grip on second place in the La Liga table and are four points clear of Sevilla following their stalemate with Villarreal on Sunday.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of the team's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the fixture with Celta Vigo.


Marc-Andre ter Stegen

Status: Minor doubt Type of injury: Illness Possible return date: April 10 (vs. Celta Vigo)

First-choice goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen was a late absentee from the clash with Real Betis due to illness, but Xavi will hope to have the German back at his disposal for Tuesday's game.


Gerard Pique

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

Gerard Pique was absent from the clash with Betis due to the muscular problem that he sustained in a recent meeting with Mallorca, and the centre-back is not expected to return just yet.


Sergi Roberto

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

Sergi Roberto was making strong progress in his recovery from thigh surgery and was training with the squad, but he recently suffered a relapse and will now be out for the rest of the season.


Pedri

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

The injury-plagued Pedri suffered a hamstring tear against Eintracht Frankfurt in the Europa League last month and will also not play again before the campaign concludes.


Sergino Dest

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

Sergino Dest left the field with a thigh injury in Barca's defeat to Rayo Vallecano towards the end of April, and the right-back is also at risk of sitting out the remainder of the season.


Nico Gonzalez

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

Barcelona announced last month that midfielder Nico Gonzalez had suffered a metatarsal fracture and will not be able to rejoin the team for training until the end of June at the earliest.


BARCELONA'S SUSPENSION LIST

Sergio Busquets

Return date: May 15 (vs. Getafe)

Sergio Busquets picked up his 10th booking of the season in the win over Betis and will serve a one-match suspension this week.
