How Eibar could line up against Barcelona

How Eibar could line up against Barcelona

Eibar boss Jose Luis Mendilibar has a full complement of first-team players available for Saturday's La Liga contest with Barcelona.

Los Armeros, who are bottom of the table and have already been relegated, have no injury concerns heading into their clash with Ronald Koeman's side on the final weekend of the season.

There are expected to be changes from the side that lost 4-1 at Valencia, though, with Sergi Enrich potentially coming in for a start in the final third alongside Kike.

Bryan Gil and Papa Diop are also pushing for spots in midfield, but the home side could again line up in a 4-4-2 formation.

Mendilibar is expected to resist the temptation to make changes to his defence, meaning that Rober Correa and Cote should again line up in the full-back positions for the league's basement side.

Miguel Atienza and Edu Exposito were both substituted in the defeat to Valencia but should retain their spots, with Recio and Kevin Rodrigues the two players potentially dropping out of the midfield.

Eibar possible starting lineup: Dmitrovic; Correa, Oliveira, Arbilla, Cote; Gil, Diop, Atienza, Exposito; Enrich, Kike
