Barcelona will look to carry the momentum on from their Clásico win on Saturday as they travel to the Estadio Municipal de Balaídos to face Celta Vigo.
Celta Vigo vs. Barcelona: Preview and TV schedule
Barcelona will be looking for their tenth victory in eleven games as they travel to face 15th placed Celta Vigo.
David Ramos
Head coach Gerardo Martino is expected to once again rotate his squad during this busy stretch of three games in less than a week's time. Alexis Sanchez and Pedro Rodriguez could make returns to the lineup after starting on the bench over the weekend. It'll be tough for Martino to take Neymar out of the lineup though as the young Brazilian has been improving with every match played, including a goal and an assist against Madrid.
Celta will look to surprise the Blaugrana and should be full of confidence after their 5-0 triumph of Málaga on Saturday. Michael Krohn-Dehli, who’s been sidelined with an ankle injury, could return to the lineup for Luis Enrique.
