Barcelona team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Osasuna

Barcelona will be looking to return to winning ways in La Liga when they continue their 2020-21 campaign at home to Osasuna on Sunday afternoon.

The Catalan giants suffered a 1-0 defeat to Atletico Madrid last weekend and have now dropped to 13th position in the table, some 12 points behind leaders Real Sociedad.

Ronald Koeman 's side will enter this match off the back of a positive result, though, having beaten Dynamo Kiev 4-0 in the Champions League on Tuesday night to advance to the round of 16 with two games to spare.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Barca's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with Osasuna, who have picked up 11 points from their nine games this season to sit 14th.
