Xavi will be without Jules Kounde, Sergi Roberto and Pedri for the Clasico, while the likes of Frenkie de Jong, Raphinha and Joao Felix and Robert Lewandowski have made the squad despite dealing with niggles of late.
Lewandowski and Felix are expected to feature from the first whistle, with Lamine Yamal possibly starting ahead of Raphinha - which means Ferran Torres is set to drop to the bench.
Barcelona possible XI: Ter Stegen; Cancelo, Araujo, Martinez, Balde; Gavi, Romeu, Gundogan; Yamal, Lewandowski, Felix.

Real Madrid team news
Long-term injury absentees in Thibaut Courtois and Eder Militao apart, Dani Ceballos is ruled out with a muscle issue.
Although Arda Guler has resumed training following a thigh problem, it is unlikely that the midfielder will be selected by Los Blancos boss Carlo Ancelotti.
With Toni Kroos' presence alongside Aurelien Tchouameni and Federico Valverde in the engine room, Eduardo Camavinga would switch to a left-back role.
In attack, Jude Bellingham should be deployed just behind Rodrygo and Vinicius Jr.
Real Madrid possible XI: Kepa; Carvajal, Rudiger, Alaba, Camavinga; Valverde, Tchouameni, Kroos; Bellingham; Rodrygo, Vinicius Jr.
| Position | Players |
|---|---|
| Goalkeepers: | Kepa, Lunin |
| Defenders: | Alaba, Rudiger, Nacho, Mendy, Garcia, Carvajal, Vazquez |
| Midfielders: | Tchouameni, Bellingham, Valverde, Camavinga, Kroos, Ceballos, Modric |
