The trio could come into contention against Celta on Saturday

Barcelona prepared for their final game of 2018, against Celta Vigo on Saturday, with Nelson Semedo, Malcom and Sergi Roberto.

The team trained on Pitch 2 at the the 

Ciutat Esportiva, with B team defenders Miranda and Chumi also involved in the session. 

Sergi Roberto and Semedo's return to group training is great news for Valverde, who is otherwise without a right-back for the weekend's game. 

Barça have been without Sergi Roberto since the draw with Atletico Madrid. He has missed six games in total. 

Semedo, meanwhile, was a late absentee for Sunday's win at Levante due to a knee problem -- he was initially included in the squad for the match. 

The third player to return to training is Malcom. The Brazilian's been out since he got injured in the Copa del Rey win over Cultural Leonesa, a fixture he scored in. 

Barça host Celta at Camp Nou on Saturday at 18.30, in their final game of the calendar year before the short winter break kicks in in Spain.
