This is a return that will do good in the back of Barcelona. This Sunday, February 2, the Catalans challenge Alaves at home, an important meeting to try to return to Real Madrid in the standings, the Merengues having been beaten yesterday by Espanyol. For this meeting, Hansi Flick presented an almost complete group, only penalized by the long-term injury of Marc-André Ter Stegen, absent since the end of September, and by the muscular concern of Dani Olmo.

Lamine Yamal teammates will be able to benefit from the return of Inigo Martinez to central defense. After missing the last five releases from Barça for muscle pain in the hamstrings, the Basque defender finds the group, after resuming training earlier this week. On the tricolor side, Jules Koundé is obviously the game, he who has become unbeatable in the right corridor of Barça.
