Barcelona team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Girona

Barcelona will be aiming to make it three straight wins in all competitions when they host Girona for a huge La Liga affair on Sunday night.

The Catalan giants booked their spot in the knockout round of the Champions League with a game to spare courtesy of a 2-1 success over Porto last week, before recording a 1-0 victory over Atletico Madrid in Spain's top flight on Sunday.

Xavi's side are currently third in the La Liga table, four points behind second-placed Girona, who have been the surprise package in the division so far this season.
