Five players set to miss out - Barcelona injury news vs. Rayo Vallecano

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

Barcelona will be aiming to make it three successive wins at the start of their 2024-25 La Liga campaign when they make the trip to Rayo Vallecano on Tuesday night.

Hansi Flick's side came from behind to record a 2-1 victory over Valencia in their season opener at Mestalla, before beating Athletic Bilbao 2-1 in their second game of the campaign on Saturday evening.

The title hopefuls will now finish August with games against Rayo and Real Valladolid before tackling Girona in their first fixture after the September international break.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Barcelona's injury and suspension news ahead of their contest with Rayo, who have picked up four points from their first two games of the new season.
