FC Barcelona vs Osasuna: Probable lineups for the match - LaLiga 2024-25

FC Barcelona and Osasuna will face each other this Thursday, March 27 2025 in the 27th matchday of LaLiga EA Sports 2024-2025. The azulgrana team arrives at the limit for the match to be held in Montjuïc due to LaLiga's controversial decision to set the date of the match shortly after the international break. However, the culés will seek to maintain their good momentum to achieve a victory that allows them to pull away at the top of the standings.

Next, we review the possible starting formation, the substitutes bench, and the injured and suspended players of Hansi Flick's Barcelona.

Due to the tight schedule, Hansi Flick will make several changes to his XI. Eric García would return to the center of defense to accompany Iñigo Martínez in the absence of the confirmed Ronald Araujo and doubts about the physical condition of Cubarsí, while Gavi would accompany Frenkie de Jong and Pedri in midfield. Raphinha, on the other hand, will not be available for the coach as he joined the squad late, and his place would be taken by Dani Olmo. The rest of the eleven would be made up of the remaining 'untouchables' of the German coach. Injured are Ter Stegen, Christensen, Marc Casadó, and Marc Bernal.

Possible lineup of FC Barcelona against Osasuna

• Starting XI: (25, P) Szczesny; (23) Koundé, (24) Eric García, (5) Iñigo Martínez, (3) Balde; (21) Frenkie De Jong, (6) Gavi, (8) Pedri; (19) Lamine Yamal, (20) Dani Olmo, (9) Lewandowski.
• Bench: (13, P) Iñaki Peña; (2) Pau Cubarsí; (7) Ferran Torres; (10) Ansu Fati; (14) Pablo Torre; (16) Fermín López; (18) Pau Víctor; (31, P) Kochen; (32) Héctor Fort; (35) Gerard Martín.
• Injured: (1) Ter Stegen; (28) Marc Bernal; (15) Andreas Christensen; (17) Marc Casadó.
• Resting: (4) Ronald Araujo; (11) Raphinha.
• Suspended: None.

The Barça seeks to return from the international break in style. The culés remain undefeated in 2025, with a record of 15 wins and 3 draws, after defeating Atlético de Madrid with a historic comeback before the international break. The team leads the league championship with 60 points, the same as Real Madrid and four ahead of Atlético (56) but with one game less, so a victory this Thursday would allow them to pull away again at the top of the table and significantly boost their chances of lifting the title at the end of the season.

On the other hand, there will be a Osasuna in low spirits. The team led by Vicente Moreno has only managed 1 win in the last 9 matches, accumulating 5 draws and 3 losses. The team is increasingly seeing the relegation spots closer, so this urgency to add three points to start securing their stay could make them a threat. The 'rojillos' already know what it is like to beat the culés this season and hope to pull off an upset, although it will be an extremely complex task as they have not known victory in the Catalan capital for five years.

Possible lineup of Osasuna against FC Barcelona

• Starting XI: Herrera; Bretones, Juan Cruz, Herrando, Catena, Areso; Muñoz, Moncayola, Ruben García, Oroz; Budimir.
• Bench: (coming soon)
• Injured: None.
• Suspended: None.
