FC Barcelona - Atlético Madrid: Confirmed lineups for the LaLiga 24/25 match

OFFICIAL: The starting lineups of Hansi Flick's Barça and Diego Simeone's Atlético Madrid are now confirmed for the match of matchday 18 of LaLiga EA Sports 2024-2025.

FC Barcelona Lineup

• Starting XI: Iñaki Peña (G);  Koundé, Pau Cubarsí, Íñigo Martínez, Balde; Casadó, Gavi, Pedri; Fermín, Raphinha, Lewandowski
• Bench: Szczesny; Araujo, Olmo, Ferran, Ansu Fati, Pablo Torre, Pau Víctor, Frenkie De Jong, Eric García, Astralaga, Héctor Fort, Gerard Martín
• Injured: Ter Stegen; Christensen; Marc Bernal.
• Suspended: (x)

The Barça ends 2024 in Montjuïc with the urgency to break the streak of two consecutive home defeats against an Atlético that arrives at its best moment. The 'colchoneros' have accumulated seven victories and hope to take advantage of the dip in form of the azulgrana team.

Additionally, Barça arrives at the match with a key absence after Lamine Yamal's injury. The '19' will be out for 3 to 4 weeks due to a problem with his right ankle, which has forced Flick to make at least one change in his starting XI. Once again, the injured players are Christensen, Ter Stegen, and Marc Bernal.
