Barcelona will be looking to make it three La Liga victories in a row when they travel to Real Valladolid on Saturday night.
The Spanish champions are currently a point behind league leaders Real Madrid in the table, although the gap will again become four points if Zinedine Zidane's side beat Alaves on Friday night.
Only a win will do for Quique Setien's team as they chase down Los Blancos, and the Catalan giants will enter this weekend's match off the back of a 1-0 win over Catalan rivals Espanyol on Wednesday.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up Barca's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with Valladolid, who have only won one of their last seven in the league.
