Line Up Sporting Gijon vs Barcelona Preview-Prediction Starting Eleven

The Starting Sporting Gijon vs Barcelona Line Up Preview.
This is the preview and starting eleven prediction of Sporting Gijon vs Barcelona starting line up match. Sporting de Gijon are one of nine teams involved in an extremely congested battle against the drop. The foot of the Primera Division sees a large group of sides clustered around the 20 point mark, and only Malaga are guaranteed to be in the relegation zone come the end of the weekend. Los Sportinguistas could easily get sucked into danger, particularly as they are unlikely to take anything from Barcelona on Saturday.

The form of Manuel Preciado’s side has actually been pretty good in recent times. January proved a fruitful month for the Asturian outfit, who picked up three successive wins before eventually losing last weekend away to Athletic Bilbao.

Sporting
Alberto Lora and Gregory Arnolin are both suspended, so coach Manuel Preciado is hopeful that Sebastian Eguren shakes off a shoulder knock to play. The tactician has barely touched his starting XI in recent weeks, so minimal changes were expected.

Barcelona
Jeffren and Carles Puyol are the only two absentees for Barca, who have seen all their internationals return in a fit state.
