Red Starvs.Barcelona

sportsmole.co.uk, 4 November 2024, 18:25
Barcelona make the trip to Serbia to take on Red Star Belgrade at the Rajko Mitic Stadium for their fourth fixture in the 2024-25 Champions League on Wednesday night.

Hansi Flick's side enter this contest on the back of beating Catalan rival Espanyol 3-1 in La Liga and they have subsequently moved nine points clear at the top of the table.

In the Champions League, Barcelona have picked up six points from a possible nine available and will be hoping to build on their impressive 4-1 victory over Bayern Munich on matchday three a fortnight ago.

Ahead of Barca's encounter with Red Star, Sports Mole rounds up their latest injury and suspension news.

Marc-Andre ter Stegen

Status: Out

Type of injury: Knee

Barcelona's first-choice goalkeeper Ter Stegen will miss the rest of the season with a serious knee injury sustained in the La Liga clash with Villarreal on September 22.

Marc Bernal

Status: Out

Type of injury: Knee

Possible return date: Unknown

Bernal suffered an ACL injury against Rayo Vallecano in August and the teenage midfielder is ruled out for the rest of the season.

Eric Garcia

Status: Out

Type of injury: Muscle

Possible return date: November 23 (vs. Celta Vigo)

Araujo is making progress in his recovery from hamstring surgery, but the centre-back is not expected to return until the end of the month.

Type of injury: Achilles

Possible return date: November 10 (vs. Real Sociedad)

Type of injury: Thigh

Possible return date: November 10 (vs. Real Sociedad)
