Barcelona team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Valencia

Sports Mole rounds up Barcelona's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their La Liga clash with Valencia.

Barcelona will be looking to bounce back from Wednesday's Champions League disappointment when they take on Valencia in La Liga on Saturday night.

Xavi's side suffered a 3-0 defeat to Bayern Munich in the European Cup last time out, but their elimination from the competition had already been confirmed ahead of that match due to Inter Milan's win over Viktoria Plzen, with the club dropping into the Europa League.

The Catalan side have won their last two in the league against Villarreal and Athletic Bilbao, though, and a total of 28 points has left them second in the table, three points behind leaders Real Madrid.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Barcelona's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with Valencia, who are ninth in Spain's top flight.
