Barcelona and Osasuna will be played within 48 hours of some of their players being on international duty, after the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) rejected an appeal from both sides to reschedule the match.
The game at Montjuic was postponed two weeks ago when Barcelona team doctor Carles Minarro Garcia sadly passed away just hours before the game. Last week the RFEF, reportedly at the request of La Liga, rearranged the game for Thursday the 27th of March, just two days after the international fixtures finish.
It means that Barcelona will likely be without Uruguayan Ronald Araujo, and Brazilian Raphinha, who are in action against Bolivia and Argentina respectively on Tuesday night. In the latter case, Raphinha’s game will finish in the early hours of the morning. Gerard Martin, Fermin Lopez and Pablo Torre are also in action for Spain’s under-21 side, meanwhile Osasuna’s starting central defender, Enzo Boyomo is playing for Cameroon against Libya the same night.
