What They're Saying

Barcelona manager Luis Enrique (via Inside Spanish Football): "I don't think he's [Almeria manager Sergi Barjuan] been there long enough to have made many changes. We won't know what has been done until the end of tomorrow's game. Changes of manager can be a stimulating factor for a club and its players though."

Almeria manager Sergi Barjuan (via Mundo Deportivo): "We all have to be united and strong here to get victories. This can't be done alone."

Tactical Preview

Player to Watch: Xavi proved to be instrumental as a substitute in Sunday's 1-0 victory over Celta Vigo. In 22 league appearances, the 35-year-old has one goal and six assists.

Barcelona's Projected Lineup (4-3-3): Bravo; Adriano, Mathieu, Pique, Alves; Rakitic, Mascherano, Xavi; Neymar, Suarez, Messi

Almeria's Projected Lineup (4-2-3-1): Julian; Casado, Molina, Trujillo, Navarro; Azeez, Partey; Mendez, Corona, Jonathan; Bifouma
