Barcelona team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Granada

Sports Mole rounds up Barcelona's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Saturday's La Liga clash with Granada.

Barcelona will be looking to make it back-to-back La Liga wins when they travel to Granada on Saturday night.

The Spanish champions beat Valencia 5-2 on home soil last weekend, but an average start to the campaign has left the team in fifth position heading into week five in Spain's top flight.

Ernesto Valverde's side will enter the match off the back of a goalless draw with Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League on Tuesday night.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Barcelona's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the meeting with El Grana.
