C.D. Leganés receives the leader with the goal of scoring

Lega faces this Saturday (9pm) a new challenge in its fight for permanence in LALIGA EA SPORTS. The Pepinero team receives F.C. Barcelona at the Estadio Municipal Butarque with the ambition of getting a positive result that will allow them to get closer to the safety zone.

The Pepineros come into the match with the need to break the streak of results and with the confidence of being able to do so at home, where the fans are crucial again. For this match, Borja recovers Óscar Rodríguez after suspension, although Barisic and Franquesa are still missing due to injury. 

F.C. Barcelona visits Butarque after their convincing victory against Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League.  Flick's team faces the match with several confirmed absentees: Ter Stegen, Casadó and Marc Bernal. Meanwhile, Christensen and Dani Olmo are recovered.

The match will also be marked by a solidarity initiative: C.D. Leganés will debut a special pair of shorts in collaboration with a testicular cancer awareness campaign, thus reinforcing its social commitment beyond the field of play.

The match will be directed by the Extremadura referee, Mr. D. Hernández Maeso.
