Barça Atlètic midfielder Marc Casadó is also called up to play right-back if necessary. The next Barcelona match is upon us! The international break was brutal for Barça, who were hit harder than any other top club by the “FIFA virus”. The match kicks off at 9pm CET (Barcelona), 8pm BST/WAT (UK & Nigeria), 3pm ET, 12pm PT (USA), 12.30am IST (India, Sunday), and you can join us to follow and comment all the action. There are good news as Sergi Roberto has recovered from a nagging injury that kept him out of the last two games before the break, and the Catalan returns to provide much needed cover at right-back. Ronald Araujo (groin), Jules Kounde (hamstring), Frenkie De Jong (hamstring) and Memphis Depay (hamstring) all miss out in this one, and Héctor Bellerín (calf) is also set for a spell on the sidelines after getting injured in training.
Their first opponents after the break are Mallorca. Javier Aguirre's side currently sit tenth in the league standings with two wins and two draws in six games.
At this stage of the season, the margin for error is low and Barcelona cannot afford even a minor slip-up. The month of October is gruelling and crucial to the team’s campaign across all competitions. Except for a minor setback in the campaign opener, Xavi’s men have been dominant in all their games this season. He is not at a shortage of options as yet, but one more setback in the defensive department could hurt the team’s run. Sergi Roberto is also dealing with a minor issue but has been named in the squad list for the Mallorca clash. Staring ahead at the most congested month of the season, Xavi has a whopping five players injured and unavailable.

"Then, the clubs get the players for the rest of the year. I think that would be a good solution, but it is not up to me." Due to these circumstances, Xavi is expected to put out a strange looking 3-4-3 formation for Saturday's match due to a lack of right backs after Hector Bellerin also picked up a knock in training in recent days.

The main threats for Barcelona will be the attacking duo of Vedat Muriqi and Kang-In Lee, who have linked up well this season. It would be just a second for the Spanish international this season. A midfielder by trade, it would be an unfamiliar role for him.

They're just keeping Mallorca inside their own half and waiting for any kind of opening. Dembele chases a ball deep into the Mallorca half. Twenty minutes to go and Barcelona still look good value for their lead. Sergi Roberto saw a low shot saved at one end, before Mallorca almost restored parity at the other seconds later. Franck Kessie fired wide before a well-worked passing routine from Barcelona was cleared inside the Mallorca six-yard box. In a game where Barcelona enjoyed large periods of possession, it was the home side that registered the better chances early on.

Barça have won each of the last nine meetings between the teams and are undefeated in the last 12. Xavi has kept his selection policy close to his chest but many observers feel that he may call upon Ansu Fati to head up the Barcelona attack along with Robert Lewandowski. After drawing a blank on the opening weekend of the campaign against Rayo Vallecano, the Polish striker has netted eight times in the last five LaLiga fixtures. A reminder of the teams for those just joining us tonight. A mild early October evening in the capital of the island with a pleasant 22C/73 F at kick off.
