Barcelona team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Real Valladolid

Sports Mole rounds up Barcelona's injury and suspension news ahead of Tuesday's La Liga clash with Real Valladolid.

Barcelona will be looking to return to winning ways in Spain's top flight when they continue their 2020-21 campaign away to Real Valladolid on Tuesday night.

Ronald Koeman's side were held to a 2-2 draw by Valencia on Saturday, and the Catalan giants are currently eight points off league leaders Atletico Madrid.

Barca will now be aiming to put a seventh La Liga victory of the season on the board in their penultimate match of 2021.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the away side's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with Valladolid, who are currently down in 17th spot in the table.
