Barcelona look to bounce back from their first league defeat of the season and maintain their narrow lead at the top of the La Liga table as the leaders welcome a solid Deportivo Alavés side to Camp Nou.

The injuries continue to mount after El Clásico and there are two huge games next week against Aston Villa and Atlético Madrid to think about, so it’s pretty much impossible to figure out Flick’s lineup for this one.

This is our best guess (and maybe some wishful thinking), but we’ll likely be very wrong. There’s been talk of giving a full debut to young midfielder Brian Fariñas, who played a good portion of preseason at right-back and could be picked as Xavi Espart’s replacement since Jules Kounde is still not ready to return from an ankle injury.
