Hansi Flick is expected to make a few changes to his Barcelona team on Saturday when the Catalans take on bottom side Real Valladolid in La Liga.
Gavi is expected to come in to the starting XI for the match and make his 12th La Liga start of the 2024-25 season.
However, the combative midfielder will have to be careful if he does play. He’s just one booking away from a one-match ban and if he sees yellow on Saturday he’ll miss the Clasico.
Gavi isn’t the only player in this situation. Inigo Martinez and Raphinha are also walking a disciplinary tightrope and will aim to avoid a booking.
