A new opportunity for Miranda against Levante
The left-back did not enter the B team squad and may get a chance on Sunday
Juan Miranda is getting near to the first team. That can be read into his absence from the Barca B squad, who face Lleida at the mini-estadi at 6pm.
That means he is likely to be in Ernesto Valverde's squad to face Levante on Sunday at 8.45pm. Miranda started against Tottenham in the Champions League, doing well in the game.
Valverde only has Miranda as a replacement for Jordi Alba, although he could also use Thomas Vermaelen there if needed.
The Belgian is available again after overcoming a muscle injury that kept him out for a month. Vermaelen also started against Spurs, at centre-back with Clement Lenglet.
