Barcelona v Osasuna: Confirmed line-ups as Rashford returns for Blaugrana

Barcelona can move seven points clear of troubled Real Madrid, for 24 hours at least, with a win over Osasuna this evening.

With Madrid struggling, Barca have taken full advantage, winning their last six league games to move four points clear at the summit.

Madrid don’t play until tomorrow when they go to Alaves and Hansi Flick’s side can apply more pressure on the capital club with a win at Camp Nou.

Osasuna head to Catalonia having registered their first win in five league games on Monday night – a 2-0 success over Levante.

The Pamplona club started the weekend in 15th place.
