Levante are sitting in fourth place in La Liga, but FC Barcelona apparently feel that they're performing a bit above their talent level. Of course, they would be correct, but it's still mildly arrogant of Barcelona to throw youngster Isaac Cuenca into a La Liga match against a team in decent form. Daniel Alves, Pedro and Thiago have all been left out of the first XI and will start on the bench. Here are the lineups.
