Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at how Barcelona could line up in Monday's La Liga clash with Real Valladolid.

Barcelona will be aiming to make it six La Liga wins in a row when they continue their 2020-21 campaign at home to Real Valladolid on Monday evening.

Ronald Koeman's side, who are currently four points behind league leaders Atletico Madrid in the table, will again be unable to call upon either Ansu Fati or Philippe Coutinho in this match through injury.

Gerard Pique has made progress in his recovery from a knee injury and could be involved against Real Madrid next weekend, but the centre-back will again miss out here, while number two goalkeeper Neto is also a doubt due to an ankle complaint.

Koeman otherwise has a full squad to choose from, including Sergi Roberto, as there were no reports of any injuries over the international break.

It seems likely that Barca will again line up with a back three on Monday, and Oscar Mingueza could again get the nod over Ronald Araujo to start alongside Frenkie de Jong and Clement Lenglet.

Koeman has plenty of options for change in the final third of the field, but Ousmane Dembele and Antoine Griezmann could again feature alongside Lionel Messi.

Roberto's return could come off the bench with Sergino Dest set to feature as the right-sided wing-back once again, while the likes of Miralem Pjanic and Trincao might have to accept spots among the substitutes.

Barca thumped Real Sociedad 6-1 away from home before the international break, and it would not be a surprise to see the exact same XI sent onto the field due to the fact that they will not be in Champions League action ahead of El Clasico.

Barcelona possible starting lineup: Ter Stegen; Mingueza, De Jong, Lenglet; Dest, Busquets, Pedri, Alba; Dembele, Messi, Griezmann
