Team News: Luis Suarez, Andres Iniesta return for Barcelona

Suarez, Iniesta return for Barcelona

Luis Suarez and Andres Iniesta have been recalled to the Barcelona side for their La Liga clash at Celta Vigo this evening.

The pair are among five changes that coach Luis Enrique has made to the team that beat Levante 4-1 at Camp Nou on Sunday.

Two of those changes are in defence, where Gerard Pique and Jeremy Mathieu come in for Marc Bartra and Adriano.

In midfield, Ivan Rakitic and Munir El-Haddadi drop out and are replaced by Iniesta and Sergi Roberto, while Suarez takes Sandro Ramirez's place in attack.

The Uruguayan starts alongside Lionel Messi and Neymar as part of a three-man frontline.

For Celta, Jonny is suspended, so drops out of defence along with Sergio Gomez, with Andreu Fontas and Carles Planas deputising.

Celta Vigo: Alvarez; Mallo, Cabral, Fontas, Planes; Orellana, Augusto, Wass, Nolito; P Hernandez, Aspas Subs: Diaz, Guidetti, Bongonda, H Hernandez, Guidetti, Madinda, Planas

Barcelona: Ter Stegen; Alves, Mascherano, Pique, Mathieu; Busquets, Roberto, Iniesta; Suarez, Messi, Neymar Subs: Masip, Douglas, Bartra, Adriano, Gumbau, Rakitic, Munir
