It has been a fantastic LaLiga campaign for Barcelona in 2022/23, as they ran away with the title, which was their first in four long years. They bring the curtain down on their season on Sunday night, as they travel to face relegation-threatened Celta Vigo.
Neither Sergio Busquets nor Jordi Alba will play for Barcelona this evening, having not been named in the matchday squad, so their careers at the club are already over. Xavi Hernandez will start Marcos Alonso in place on Alba and Franck Kessie as a replacement for Busquets, according to Sport.
Ansu Fati is set to continue after his brace against Mallorca last weekend, while Marc-Andre Ter Stegen can look to break multiple records, while also securing the Zamora trophy for the first time in his career.
Celta need to defeat Barcelona in order to ensure their safety. They sit in 17th, just one point above Real Valladolid in the drop zone, and a draw may not be enough. Carlos Carvalhal does have Iago Aspas and Fran Beltran back from injury, while Gabri Veiga is set to play his final game for the club, amid intense speculation over his future.
For Barcelona, it is very much a case of trying to end their season on a high, although there’s little doubt that Celta Vigo will be much more up for this game, as they look to keep their place in LaLiga for next season.

It’s obvious your not a fan of the club from your time. Just disguising yourself because even a proper fan knew I said something that made sense straight away, you are here twisting the argument to your favor as I expected. Mr if it’s to be it will be, ask pep to play his reserves, I don’t mean his bench, but his reserves against Inter in the UCL final and see if they win 😒 Strong teams create records
lol how is that record now it pains Me that Barca fans can't see xavi has average tactics to be a Barca coach and the worst part is no matter how bad he is Barca can't get rid of him because of the past relationship he has with Barca , meaning Barca is doomed at least for the next 3 years

shut up bro pep will never bend d knee for a single player I remember him subbing off halland when he still had time to hit his 6th goal in a match to beat messi 5 goal in a match record and when he shouted at halland for allowing gundogan to take d penalty because he was on his way to get an hatrick d fact is u clearly a baby fan and u don't understand good football that's y u can't see xavi is a shitty coach ,but it cool time will tell am sure u among those that thought feran was a good player when he came because of his goal stats lol same as those that compared fati with king vini because of goal stats m sure if messi wasn't a Barca player you would think Ronaldo is better than messi because of goal stats I don't argue football with fans that think xavi is tactically a good coach

if the record is meant to happen it will if it not even if u like play prime Barca he won't get d record if it not meant for him beside it doesn't change d fact that xavi is tactically a shitty coach whom doesn't trust la masia koman would have seen busi replacement by now ,won't be surprised if he plays gavi for 90 minutes again and not given Pablo tore chance again I saw how he subbed out Pablo in the last match even when he was doing far better than Gavi in that match xavi is a shitty coach and only average football fans doesn't see that I loved him so much as a player but as a coach he is so terrible d only way Barca create chance is by crossing d ball through the wings ,it still a miracle they won la Liga or maybe la Liga teams was so poor this season that he didn't have any challenge
Stop insulting our coach, warn yourself 😠 you don’t know him and he doesn’t know you too, let it stay that way

Ter stegen doesn’t want to sit out because he’s gunning for the record and therefore forces xavi’s hand to play a strong team. Besides what is 1 game for the b team you are talking about that they can’t have next season or during pre season to see their potential? Why giving them their debut on final day of season, does that make sense? Do you also know that they are currently playing a division 2 qualification play off against Madrid castilla (Madrid b) and they won 4:2 yesterday semis barring the return leg? They can’t play yesterday and today and we can’t borrow so much of their players because they are highly needed there than a useless debut that won’t matter. You self think, not all the time we criticize Xavi, these are the things he’s talking about every week
