Marcus Rashford is expected to start his second consecutive La Liga match after making his debut in the comeback win over Levante. The Manchester United loanee will be keen to build on his impressive introduction to Spanish football and provide the attacking threat that convinced Hansi Flick to pursue his signature.

Robert Lewandowski returned from his hamstring injury against Levante but Ferran Torres continued his good performance and scored again. The Polish striker’s return adds further firepower to Barcelona’s attack alongside the electric Lamine Yamal and the creativity of Pedri.

Marc Bernal continues his recovery from the ACL injury he suffered against Rayo Vallecano last season and is expected to return to action in September.
