Dembélé, Lenglet and Sergi Roberto are all expected to start

Ernesto Valverde's probable starting lineup for the Copa Clasico is becoming ever more clear. The match against Sevilla gave us even more clues as one eye was clearly on Wednesday's clash.

Coutinho started against Sevilla which suggests that Ousmane Dembele, who came on as a substitute, will be in the XI for the match at Bernabeu.

In goal, Marc-Andre ter Stegen is expected to start because Cillessen's fitness remains an unknown.

As for the back four, with Vinicius likely to be on the left of the attack for Real Madrid, Semedo will line up against him. Pique and Lenglet will start in the middle after the Frenchman was rested for the clash against Sevilla. On the left it'll be Jordi Alba.

Rakitic and Busquets are certain to start. As for that last spot, it's less clear. Sergi Roberto, who played there against Lyon, could retain his place. This would see Arturo Vidal remain on the bench.

Up front Messi and Suarez will play. If there are no last minute changes, the third man in attack will be Ousmane Dembele with Coutinho an option off the bench. If Valverde switches to a 4-2-3-1 then it's possible the Brazilian might get the nod instead.
