Barcelona will be aiming to make it six straight wins in all competitions when they continue their 2024-25 campaign with a La Liga fixture against Espanyol on Sunday afternoon.

Hansi Flick's side will enter the Catalan derby off the back of an incredible 4-0 victory over Real Madrid in El Clasico, with the result moving them six points clear at the top of the La Liga table.

Barcelona have scored 21 times in their last five matches in all competitions, while they have already managed 37 goals in Spain's top flight during an impressive campaign to date.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Barcelona's injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with Espanyol, who sit 17th in the division, picking up 10 points from their opening 11 matches of the season.
