  • Martin Aguirregabiria is back available after suspension and should feature at right-back for the hosts.
  • Rodrigo Ely is suspended after getting sent off against Real Betis, with Lisandro Magallan expected to partner Victor Laguardia at centre-back.

Prediction

  • Alaves secured their first win in seven LaLiga matches last time out, beating Betis 2-1.
  • The hosts will be playing their football in the Spanish top-flight again next season after securing the necessary three points last time out.
  • Barcelona lost out on LaLiga's title last time out after losing 2-1 at home to 10-man Osasuna. They need a response.

  • This legue was sold to madrid. Barcelona are not bad as they have been protraying. Sietien is very Good coach. But he sold the league. This coach can win Champion Legue easly..

  • @nceshNcero, really? I think Barça can win the Champions because it's one leg, so Roma/Liverpool won't happen again. :)

  • Really, what if barca vs psg happen...there is no 2nd leg��

  • Messi has his worst scoring season since 2009. Still wins the Pichichi and finishes as top assister! GOAT

  • Vintage Suarez would've score at least a hat-trick in this match.

  • If this is an apology for the pathetic loss vs Osasuna, I accept it.

  • Another league lost by Barca hahahhahaa -5

  • @stefanm another. Where is the first one?

  • Messi 33 matches, 25 goals, 21 assists. His worst goalscoring season since 2009 (23) but his best ever (and record) of providing assists. :)

  • @Davisson 23 goals might sound like too few for Messi but when you compare his stats to those of other top playmakers, there is no other who scored 20 league goals this season.

  • Great timing

  • @benj Hahahahaahahhahaahahahaahhaah SETIEN SHOULD RENEW NOW #2026. XDDDDDDD

  • Messi assist before Fati goal, his 21th.

  • @Pastore10 So If he wants to surpass Müller from Munich he needs one more assist ...

  • By transfermark Messi already had 21 assists. I think this of today does count really.

  • @Amos_Rodrigues Transfermarkt is rubbish if it comes to stats. They just collect them from everywhere and they are not official like the ones from Opta.

  • @neumi17 as transfermarkt, who scored considered the assists today.

  • @neumi17 Transfermarkt is good, they just include winning a penalty as an assist which I agree is stupid by that's why their assist stats sometimes seem wrong.

  • @Pastore10 doesn't count bc it was deflected

  • @GioMonaldo does count officially

  • @PogChampxd Yes I see they changed it now, they didn't give Messi the assist at first bc it was deflected I assume.

  • @PogChampxd it doesn't count , is like the backhell assist from cristiano to Higuaín . It doesn't count because it was "deflected" .

  • @Efe63848297373 Obviously it counts if you look at the match centre

  • So there is diferent offside rull in spain cos suarez was offside when he scored.

  • @svetoslav bruh

  • @svetoslav if you mean he was offside when the original through ball was played to Alba, he wasn't an active player in that phase of the move so not defined as offside under the current rules.

  • @svetoslav he was behind the player who passed him the ball, which makes him onside in any country.

  • @jonejo34 Madridiots want different rules as they have in their own matches LOL

  • @Pastore10 I don't think they care about you, they won the league. lol

  • @MathCatsFootball oh they care, they want more than just winning the league just like every fan. There's individual player awards in play as well.

  • What a game what a performance o wait its vs alaves

  • @svetoslav whats your point we struggled against relegated espanol this is a good result

  • Messi must score here. And register an assis

  • Puig is promising. Can't wait to see him play more.

  • It doeant matter. If we lose the legue. Weve won it to many times. So much so that most fans dnt realltly care

  • Alaves gave up from minute one today.. What an awful team. Setien closer now to the title...Oh wait..Hahahahahaha

  • @stefanm yes closer to CL title:) in few weeks time:)

  • I don't know what Setien told the players but I DEMAND more of this!

  • @GioMonaldo barca is on fire now.. but its after losing the league

  • @SagorSrkian The world doesn't end today, so this is a good thing.

  • @SagorSrkian or Alaves is just too awful today and they gave up from minute one .

  • @stefanm ok dog. Alaves were 10 times worse when they played against VARdrid.

  • Barcelona will win but its not necessary now

  • Messi hat trick.

  • @Davisson I would be shocked if Barca didn't win 3-1

  • Rakitic,Pique and Firpo suspended :D

  • @stefanm Arthur out too

  • @stefanm Umtiti,Dembele and Grizzy injured.

  • 1-0 Joselu .

  • Barca celebrates another league title.. While UEFAdrid extends the drought with 2 league titles in 12 years

  • @CrazyBarcaFan00 hahhahahha
