BAR vs EIB Dream11 Match Preview, Team News, Lineups

 

La Liga champions Barcelona open the ninth round of the current season after the international break as they hit the road to take on Eibar at Ipurua Municipal Stadium.

Barcelona are picking up some momentum following four consecutive wins in all competitions. That run has helped the Catalonia giants to make some ground on the points table. Though, they still trail leaders and eternal rivals Real Madrid by two points.

With the season’s first El Clasico getting postponed due to security concerns in Catalonia, Barca are more than capable of stringing together a winning sequence.

Eibar, though, will be eying a win for themselves and will hope to catch the visitors off guard after a two-week international hiatus.

The main and realistic target for Eibar should be a top-10 finish this season and they lack behind in that regard at the moment.


Match Details:

The La Liga match will be played between Eibar and Barcelona at Ipurua Municipal Stadium, in Eibar, Spain. The ground has a capacity of 7,083.
The game will start at 04:30 PM (IST), on Saturday, October 19

Dio and Alvarez should form the base of the midfield, while Inui, Exposito, and Orellana should start behind Garcia in the attack.
