Alavés and Barcelona Lineups: Catalans Field Several Reserves

Barcelona travels to Alavés for their first match since clinching the La Liga title with a 2-0 victory over Real Madrid in El Clásico. The encounter at Mendizorroza holds far greater significance for the hosts, who are battling to avoid relegation from the top flight.

Barcelona is in superb form, having recorded 11 consecutive league wins. Alavés, however, is at the opposite end of the spectrum, securing only one victory in their last five matches. Quique Sánchez Flores's side is currently in the relegation zone and will be desperate to claim all three points today to keep their hopes of survival alive.
