Barcelona team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Granada

Sports Mole rounds up Barcelona's injury and suspension news ahead of their La Liga clash with Granada on January 9.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the away side's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with Granada, who are currently seventh in the division.
