Lionel Messi and Sergio Busquets have been named on the bench for Barcelona’s LaLiga clash with Levante on Saturday.
Ernesto Valverde’s side will win the title if they claim a victory at Camp Nou, as it would give them a nine-point lead and a superior head-to-head record over Atletico Madrid with three games to go.
However, Valverde appears to be thinking ahead to Wednesday’s Champions League semi-final first leg against Liverpool, with Messi and Busquets only among the substitutes.
It is otherwise a strong Barca side, with Gerard Pique, Ivan Rakitic, Philippe Coutinho, Ousmane Dembele and Luis Suarez all involved from the start.
Marc-Andre ter Stegen, Nelson Semedo, Clement Lenglet, Jordi Alba, Arthur and Arturo Vidal complete their line-up.
