Barcelona injury, suspension news vs. Celta Vigo: Will Lamine Yamal, Robert Lewandowski feature?

Barcelona will be aiming to return to winning ways in La Liga when they travel to Celta Vigo on Saturday night.

The Catalan outfit entered the November international break off the back of a 1-0 defeat to Real Sociedad, but they remain top of the La Liga table, six points ahead of second-placed Real Madrid.

Hansi Flick's side have played a game more than the reigning champions, though, and they will be desperate for their strong start to the season not to go to waste, making this a hugely important fixture.
