Lewandowski, it's official

Challenged at FC Barcelona for many months now, Robert Lewandowski is kept in the starting eleven by Xavi Hernandez for the Blaugranas’ match this Wednesday (7 p.m.) against Almeria, the last in La Liga.

Silent again during the draw against Barça in Valencia (1-1), last Saturday, Robert Lewandowski started this Wednesday for the match of the 18th day of Liga against Almeria at the Olympic Stadium in Montjuic (kick-off at 7 p.m. , live on beIN Sports 4).

Despite his goals (eight in La Liga, only one in the Champions League), the Polish striker is very disappointing this season, often out of the picture in the possession game advocated by his coach.

FCB, fourth in the standings, must absolutely revive against the red lantern after its defeat against Girona followed by a draw against Valencia last Saturday. Raphinha and Joao Félix complete the attacking trio, while Fermin Lopez is aligned in midfield alongside Sergi Roberto and Ilkay Gündogan.

Frenkie de Jong is suspended, while Pedri, victim of a muscle injury, has joined Marc-André ter Stegen, Inigo Martinez, Marcos Alonso and Gavi on the infirmary.

Barça’s starting lineup: Peña – Cancelo, Araujo, Christensen, Baldé – Fermin, Sergi Roberto, Gündogan – Raphinha, Lewandowski, Joao Félix.
