Against Atlético de Madrid, Ronald Koeman could build his 'last' line-up as Barça coach ... and he can't keep anything

Calendar of FC Barcelona

The FC Barcelona visits Wanda Metropolitan this Saturday 2 October, from the 21:00 hours (Spain), to confront to the Athletic of Madrid in the corresponding duel to the eighth day of LaLiga Santander, that is marked like which could be the last of Ronald Koeman like Barcelona trainer. The Barça is forced to go out with the best that has in the changing room to add some three points that will be keys for recortar distances with the teams that are in the highest of the classification, the Atleti between them.

The Dutch trainer probably enter changes in his alignment regarding the one of the party in front of the Benfica, the past Wednesday by the second day of the phase of groups of the Champions League. For the occasion, Koeman recovers to Jordi Alba, that was lesionado, and Frenkie of Jong, of turn after fulfilling a party of sanction. However, it has lost to Pedri González, by what will have to opt, surely, by Gavi or Nico, as already it did it in front of the Raise. Of the same way, foresees that the Barça go back to the 4-3-3, as it has come it doing in LaLiga. To continuation, our forecast of the alignments:

Possible alignments of the Athletic of Madrid-FC Barcelona

  • XI of the Athletic of Madrid: Oblak; Trippier, Savic, Beautiful, Giménez, Carrasco; Koke, Of Paul, Llorente; Griezmann and Luis Suárez.
  • XI of the FC Barcelona: Ter Stegen; Alba, Hammered, Araújo, Dest; Busquets, Gavi, Frenkie of Jong; Memphis, Coutinho and Luuk of Jong.

Ter Stegen

Except surprise, Marc-André ter Stegen will be to title in Wanda Metropolitan. The guardameta germano comes of a 'nightmare' in Lisbon and will have to be very attentive to avoid commit errors. Will have in front to two players that knows very well, but that they are a true danger: Antoine Griezmann and Luis Suárez, but will have to loan great attention to others that are very talentosos and that are used to incordiar to the guardametas: Carrasco, Correa, Llorente...

Alba-Hammered-Araújo-Dest

In the defensive saga there are some doubts, because Jordi Alba has 'colado' in the announcement after some weeks of drop, but does not know if Koeman will opt by him from the beginning. In any case, if it is to 100%, is safe that it will be to title to accompany to, probably, Gerard Hammered and Ronald Araújo in the axis of the defence, with the option that it play Eric García instead of the charrúa. By the right band, will be Sergiño Dest, the one who would go back to his natural position and where feels much more comfortable.

It is the possibility that Koeman opt for using the defence contres head offices for 'protect' in front of the Athletic, what would suppose that in the axis will play Eric, Hammered and Araújo, whereas the two sides will situate in a more advanced position, like carrileros, to contribute more in the offensive function of the culés. Nevertheless, the experiments with this system (3-5-2) have not given good results to the Barça in the Champions League, where has used it the Dutch, neither with the Bayern, neither with the Benfica.

Gavi-Busquets-Of Jong

With the absence of Pedri González, the one who suffers a muscular injury in the cuádriceps of the left thigh, Koeman is forced to do changes in the medullary, by what Gavi would begin the party like titling, but with the option of a very discussed Sergi Roberto. What himself is practically sure, is that Sergio Busquets and Frenkie of Jong will direct the centre of the Barcelona field, to fault that they decide his companions.

Memphis-Of Jong-Coutinho

In the forward there is very few alternatives, by the big list of drops, but is likely that Memphis, Luuk of Jong and Philippe Coutinho are the attendants to lead the Barcelona offensive, with the option that Ansu Fati ingrese in the second time. To the attackers it is necessary to demand him a lot of more, because in front of the Benfica went back to 'sin' and remain without shots to the arch. Besides, will have to a wall as it is it Jan Oblak in front, by what surely will have to work the double.
