Barcelona lineup vs. Real Madrid: Predicted XI for Hansi Flick's side in El Clasico

Big decisions for Flick: How Barcelona could line up against Real Madrid

Sports Mole looks at how Barcelona could line up in Saturday's Copa del Rey final against Real Madrid.

Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick is expected to make six changes to his starting side for Saturday's Copa del Rey final against Real Madrid.

Flick shuffled his pack against Mallorca in La Liga last time out, but the Catalan outfit still managed to get the job done at their temporary home, running out 1-0 winners courtesy of an effort from Dani Olmo.

Barcelona will once again be missing their leading goalscorer Robert Lewandowski this weekend due to a hamstring injury, with the Poland international not expected back until the league game with Real Madrid next month, so Ferran Torres is set to be given the nod through the middle for the Catalan giants.

Alejandro Balde has also not recovered from a hamstring issue of his own in time for the final, meanwhile, with Gerard Martin therefore in line for the left-back role.

Marc Casado and Marc Bernal are also injured, but number one goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen is back in the squad, having recovered from the serious knee injury that he suffered last September.

Pau Cubarsi is set to return to the side in the middle of the defence, with Ronald Araujo potentially missing out, while Jules Kounde will also be back at right-back for the Catalan giants.

Lamine Yamal and Raphinha are certain starters in the wide areas for Barcelona, while Flick has a big decision when it comes to the number 10 spot, with three players, including Gavi, competing for the one position.

A fully-fit Olmo would have a strong chance of starting, but the Spain international is still working his way back from a muscular issue, so Fermin Lopez may therefore be given the nod from the first whistle in El Clasico.

Barcelona possible starting lineup: Szczesny; Kounde, Cubarsi, I Martinez, Martin; De Jong, Pedri; Yamal, F Lopez, Raphinha; Torres
