Barcelona will entertain Mallorca at the Nou Camp this Saturday as they look to secure all three points at home in La Liga. The Catalan club earned a narrow 2-1 win over Albacete recently, so they would be eager to keep their good form going this weekend.
Hansi Flick will set his players up in a 4-2-3-1 formation and is expected to make a few tweaks to his first team for this clash. Ferran Torres, Fermin Lopez and Pau Cubarsi could all play from the start of this game.
4-2-3-1 Barcelona Predicted Lineup To Face Mallorca
Defence
Joan Garcia will play in between the sticks for the Catalan club after he conceded one goal in his last appearance. Pau Cubarsi will function alongside Eric Garcia at the centre of the Barcelona defence as they focus on keeping things solid on the defensive end of the field.
Jules Kounde will try to prove his worth as the right-back, while Alejandro Balde looks to catch the eye on the other side as the left-back. Both of them will try to go forward and join in on the attack at every chance they can get.
Ronald Araujo will provide cover for the defensive positions on the bench.
Midfield
Frenkie de Jong and Dani Olmo will anchor the midfield for the Catalan giants. Their main job would be to protect their backline and engineer some inviting chances inside the Mallorca half.
The talented trio of Marcus Rashford, Fermin Lopez and Lamine Yamal will operate just ahead of them as part of the Barca attack. All three of them need to be at the top of their game if the Catalan outfit are to secure the win this weekend.
Marc Casado and Marc Bernal will make up the numbers on the bench and might come on to influence the game in the second 45 minutes if needed.
Attack
Ferran Torres will lead the line for Barca up top. He has to find a way to be a real threat in the final third.
Robert Lewandowski will be available for selection on the bench as he awaits his chance to make an impact in the final quarter of the game if needed.
