To the already known absences of Ousmane Dembélé and Pedri, the casualties of Andreas Christensen and Frenkie de Jong have been added. In addition, Raphinha will miss the match due to a ban. Ronald Araujo also did not concentrate due to an adductor injury in the left thigh, but this Friday he has trained with his teammates and has entered the call.

The delicate situation of his rival and the twelve points advantage enjoyed by Barça over Madrid when there are twelve days left give some tranquility to Xavi Hernández, who on the horizon glimpses the cup match against the ‘White House’ as a home that his team faces with a minimum advantage (0-1).

Given the proximity of the duel against the white team, the Barcelona coach will be forced to introduce rotations. Marcos Alonso and Eric García could have their chance in the back, while Sergi Roberto, who played in the middle of the last league game, could be placed again at right back.

In the core, Sergio Busquets, Franck Kessie and Gavi seem to have a guaranteed place in the eleven, while in the front Ansu Fati, protagonist this week by the criticism of his father for the lack of minutes, wins whole to be a starter with Robert Lewandowski and Ferran Torres. All this without ruling out that Xavi can give the alternative to young people of the subsidiary such as Estanis Pedrola, Marc Casadó, and the youth Ángel Alarcón and Aleix Garrido, who debuts in a call of the first team.

Elche, colistin, wants to give himself joy in a year that is being very bitter against Barcelona, the solid leader of the competition, in the meeting that will mean the debut of the Argentine coach Sebastián Beccacece, a fourth coach who passes through the Elche bench this season.

The locals have almost impossible permanence, but they want to offer their fans, with whom they feel indebted in the year of the centenary of the entity, a triumph of enormous prestige.

The main novelty is on the bench since the defeat in San Sebastian on the last day closed the stage of Pablo Machín and opened that of Beccacece, a coach whose objective is to sign a championship-worthy finish and start planning the next course.
