FC Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick is not expected to alter the winning combination, especially with the forward line, which has netted three goals each in the last two LaLiga matches. So, Lamine Yamal is expected to be in the starting XI, playing the match from the usual right-wing slot. Raphinha might be on the left wing, as the Cule might clash with a 4-2-3-1 formation in the Rayo Vallecano vs Barcelona match.
