Official: Barcelona name starting XI for CD Guadalajara clash | Copa del Rey | OneFootball

FC Barcelona will be kicking off their game against Guadalajara in the Copa del Rey soon. A big game for both teams, but there are no second chances here if either team ends up losing. That simply means that there is everything to play for.

However, it also means that Hansi Flick cannot afford to get his starting eleven wrong. For that reason, he has decided to combine some rotations with guaranteed regulars as well to give the team a good fighting chance.

Here is the official Barça starting eleven for this cup clash.

In goal, German goalkeeper Marc-Andre Ter Stegen finally ends up getting a start for Barça again. Considering how long it has been, this will be a big test for the veteran goalkeeper.

Ahead of him, a centre-back partnership of Eric Garcia and Andreas Christensen will be starting together looking to defend the Barça goal. They will need to be alert and vigilante at all times.

On the flanks, Jofre Torrents and Marc Casado will be the starting full-backs for this game. A big opportunity for both players, as they will need to be focused and will need to cover a lot of distance as well.

In the midfield, Frenkie de Jong will be starting alongside Marc Bernal as the two pivots. Their dynamic partnership could prove to be a key one for Barça here considering how impactful they can be for the team.

As for the forwards, Lamine Yamal, Fermin Lopez, Roony Bardghji, and Marcus Rashford all start together to complete the attacking lineup for the team. All four of them can be threats in their own unique ways, and that will be a big deal for Barça here.
