Barcelona match today live against Celta Vigo might catch Xavi's breath as Barcelona are chasing La Liga glory since 2019.
Barcelona is going into their game against Celta Vigo with a disappointing loss to Inter Milan in the Champions League, surely the defeat would be in the back of the mind of Barca players.
Barcelona this year has added much-needed reinforcements during the summer transfer window, Barcelona also has started this season on a very strong note currently sitting at the top of the table with their arch-rival Real Madrid down in second.
Xavi as Barcelona looks to cement their position at the top of the table.
Barcelona will look to attack all out to that of the Vigo's defence, Going into the match Xavi has to deal with a number of players going out with injuries, with Ronald Arujo Christensen, Kunde, and Hector Bellerin all injured Xavi has to deal with quite a lot of headache selecting the backline against Celta.
Keeping in mind some of these players were bought in the summer due to the acute defensive crisis during the previous seasons at Barcelona, Injuries to these players would be a big blow for Xavi and the management.
They sort of sold their future income sources to fix the current problems at Barcelona and injuries to these investments/players might harm Barcelona in the near future.
With a major hole in the backline, Xavi would surely start with Pique in the defence partnering with Eric Garcia for the Center-Back duo, but for the Full-Backs Xavi has very less to choose from. Sergio Roberto and Balde might start in those full-back positions.
Barcelona has to keep a close eye on Iago Aspas as he is the one player who could surely harm Barcelona going forward.
With Barcelona's injury problems, it might turn out to be a very nasty game for Barcelona as they can't risk any more injuries. The availability of Frankie de Jong will help them give a big boost defensively. They currently sit at the top of the table but Barcelona's match today live against Celta Vigo might change the face of the La Liga table.
