FC Barcelona will be hoping to extend their lead at the top of the La Liga table to four points when they face Atletico Madrid in a little over an hour.
The Blaugrana come into the game on the back of a 3-1 win over Alaves, but will be in for a tough challenge, given that the Rojiblancos have registered seven victories in a row in all competitions.
With kickoff at the Spotify Camp Nou not far away, Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick has announced the starting lineup for the game.
For a third league game in a row, Flick has decided to start Gerard Martin as a makeshift centre-back after being impressed with his performances against Athletic Club and Alaves.
Martin starts alongside Pau Cubarsi at the heart of the Barça defence, while Jules Kounde and Alejandro Balde line up as the full-backs. Joan Garcia continues in goal.
Pedri returns to the lineup after returning from injury on Saturday. However, with Frenkie de Jong missing out with a fever, the Spaniard is partnered with Eric Garcia.
In-form playmaker Dani Olmo continues as the No. 10, while Lamine Yamal and Raphinha partner him in the final third on the flanks.
Up top, it is Robert Lewandowski who gets the nod over Ferran Torres.
