4-3-3 Barcelona Predicted Lineup Vs Mallorca

Defence

Marc-André Ter Stegen is to feature in goal for the Catalans and the German shot-stopper would look to give a strong performance hoping to pick up a clean sheet.

Eric Garcia will look to partner up with veteran defender Gerrard Pique who starts again after returning from an injury.

Jordi Alba is guaranteed to start with Veteran right-back Dani Alves on the opposite side as Dest remains unavailable.

Midfield

Xavi’s midfield could be comprised of Sergio Busquets, Gavi and Frenkie De Jong who are in excellent form as evident from their recent performances. The midfield trio will look to create clear-cut goal-scoring chances for the men up front.

Attack

Ousmane Dembele and Ferran Torres could acquire the wide areas, along with the likes of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang who will lead the attack against Mallorca.

Adama Traore will be seen on the bench along with Memphis Depay and they might be summoned later if needed.
