Team news
FC Barcelona: Hansi Flick has announced Lamine Yamal's comeback after an ankle injury and the Spanish talent will definitely feature in the home game on Saturday, as the same coach announced in the pre-game press conference: "He's back and he's ready to play. We haven't decided yet if he'll start, but he will play."
Potential FC Barcelona XI: Pena; Kounde, Cubarsi, Martinez, Balde; De Jong, Pedri; Yamal, Olmo, Raphinha; Lewandowski.
Las Palmas: We shouldn't expect many surprises for the guests, with striker Fabio Silva leading the attack. Las Palmas are currently fighting to avoid relegation and lost their last home game against Mallorca over the weekend.
Potential Las Palmas XI: Cillessen; Rozada, Suarez, McKenna, Munoz; Essugo, Campana; Sandro, Rodriguez, Fuster; Silva.
Prediction
With Lamine Yamal's return, Flick can finally have his best player in the team again and it can be a boost for their title hopes. Pick: Barcelona 3, Las Palmas 0.
