Sergio Busquets and 10 more against Valencia
Valverde confirmed the defensive midfielder would feature against Los Che
Ernesto Valverde said that Sergio Busquets will not rest against Valencia. The visit of the third place team in La Liga is a worry for the coach. The message was almost that it's "Busquets and 10 more".
PUALINHO OPTION
Rakitic will not be playing with his finger fracture. Paulinho could feature, having not played against Leganes in Camp Nou and then not against Roma either in Italy. He has the most the similar profile to Rakitic.
COUTINHO BACK
Andres Iniesta must be tired and thinking about the Copa del Rey final on April 21, Valverde might decide to rest him. Coutinho has grown into his role at the club and is fresh after missing the Champions League game through being cup-tied. The Brazilian has started nine of 11 games in La Liga, including the last five.
dembélé could return
The defence could see Sergi Roberto replacing Nelson Semedo at right-back, and perhaps that means there is space for Ousmane Dembele on the right, ready to link up with Suarez and Messi. The other change could see Thomas Vermaelen come into the side for Umtiti.
