Sports Mole looks at how Barcelona could line up in Saturday night's La Liga clash with Osasuna.

Pedri is expected to return to the Barcelona XI for Saturday's La Liga contest against Osasuna.

The Spain international was a slight doubt for Barcelona's clash with Getafe on Wednesday due to a minor injury, but he was in the squad and ultimately featured off the bench in the latter stages of the 1-0 win.

Pedri is now likely to come back into the XI for the trip to Osasuna, with Marc Casado expected to drop down to the bench in potentially the only change to the side.

Head coach Hansi Flick's options are limited, as eight players are currently injured, with Marc-Andre ter Stegen, Frenkie de Jong, Fermin Lopez, Gavi, Dani Olmo, Ronald Araujo, Andreas Christensen and Marc Bernal all on the treatment table.

De Jong is close to returning, but this match will come too soon for the Netherlands international, who has been struggling to overcome a long-term ankle problem.

Robert Lewandowski made it seven goals in his first seven league matches of the season with the winner against Getafe, and the experienced striker will again feature in the final third of the field.

Ferran Torres is an option to freshen the attack, but Lamine Yamal and Raphinha should again start, while Eric Garcia is set for another outing in the middle of midfield.

Barcelona possible starting lineup: Pena; Kounde, Cubarsi, I Martinez, Balde; E Garcia, Pedri; Yamal, Torre, Raphinha; Lewandowski
