Ronald Koeman picks the same side as he opts for continuity
The coach liked what he saw in the 4-2 win over Real Sociedad last weekend
Ronald Koeman picked the same Barca side to face Athletic Bilbao as started the first game against Real Sociedad. He chose continuity after a good start.
It’s the same 4-3-3 set up too, with Memphis Depay as false nine. Koeman is consolidating and seems to have his favoured XI.
Neto is in goal while Ter Stegen is out injured. Dest remains ahead of Emerson Royal, with Eric Garcia alongside Gerard Pique in the centre of defence. Ronald Araujo must wait for his chance. Jordi Alba is untouchable at left back.
The midfield is fairly set, Busquets, Pedri and De Jong, behind Memphis, Griezmann and Martin Braithwaite.
