Barcelona will look to extend their three-game winning streak across all competitions on Sunday against Elche away at the Estadio Manuel Martinez Valero.
The Blaugrana are in good form, having scored four goals in each of their last three matches against Valencia, Napoli and Athletic Club. Xavi Hernandez will not have Sergi Roberto, Ansu Fati and Samuel Umtiti at his disposal for this LaLiga Santander match due to injuries, but Barcelona now boast a strong attacking line following the January transfer window.
As for Elche, the hosts will play without Pedro Bigas and Helibelton Palacios, who are both out injured, while Ivan Marcone and Javier Pastore could miss out on Sunday's duel through knocks. Francisco's side were defeated 3-0 away at bottom-placed Levante last Friday and they will focus all their efforts on getting back to winning ways in their bid to avoid relegation.
