Alaves v Barcelona – Probable Lineups – Will Arda Turan’s Barca go Top
Barcelona will go to the top of the Spanish La Liga if they defeat Deportivo Alaves today.
Luis Enrique’s side booked their place in the Copa del Rey final following a draw with Atletico Madrid earlier this week.
Turkey international Arda Turan is expected to miss today’s game on the bench after starting for Barca against Atletico on Tuesday.
Turan is suffering from a groin problem and was forced to sit out Friday’s training session.
Andres Iniesta is tipped to start in Arda’s place as part of a midfield trio alongside Ivan Rakitic and Sergio Busquets.
While Barcelona can go two points clear of Real Madrid at the top of the league today, the Madrid based giants will have three games in hand.
