Barcelona vs. Atletico Madrid - team news, lineups

Barcelona and Atletico Madrid will face off in a crucial La Liga clash on Saturday, with the two sides level on points at the top of the table.

The two teams are locked on 38 points each after 18 games, with Barcelona currently leading on goal difference. However, Atletico have a game in hand, meaning a win would see them leapfrog their rivals.

Barcelona have struggled for consistency of late, winning just one of their last six league games. Their most recent outing saw them suffer a shock 1-0 defeat at home to Leganes.

In contrast, Atletico are the form team in La Liga, having won their last 11 matches in all competitions, including six straight league victories. Diego Simeone’s side edged past Getafe 1-0 in their previous game thanks to a late strike from Alexander Sorloth.

Team News

Barcelona will be without the services of 17-year-old midfielder Lamine Yamal, who has been ruled out until the new year with an ankle injury.

Andreas Christensen and Ansu Fati have an outside chance of returning to the squad, but long-term absentees Marc Bernal and Marc-Andre ter Stegen remain sidelined.

Atletico, meanwhile, have a fully fit squad to choose from, with Thomas Lemar’s recent return to fitness giving Diego Simeone a clean bill of health.
