Diego Simeone has selected his first choice lineup of late, with Diego Costa leading the attack after returning from an injury that kept him out last week. Central defender Diego Godín is back as well after serving a card suspension.
Gerard Piqué has gotten fit from a hip injury just in time for the season’s final day, and he’ll start alongside Javier Mascherano. Gerardo Martino has elected to start Cesc Fàbregas over Xavi in the midfield, which will annoy some observers to no end. There are no changes in the attack, where Lionel Messi will be flanked by Pedro and Alexis Sánchez.
Barcelona (4-3-3): José Manuel Pinto; Adriano, Javier Mascherano, Gerard Piqué, Dani Alves; Sergio Busquets, Andrés Iniesta, Cesc Fàbregas; Pedro, Lionel Messi, Alexis Sánchez.
Atlético Madrid (4-4-2): Thibaut Courtois; Filipe Luis, Diego Godín, João Miranda, Juanfran; Tiago Mendes, Gabi, Arda Turan, Koke; David Villa, Diego Costa.
