Luis Enrique has opted to start new signings Paco Alcacer and Jasper Cillissen in the game against Alaves.
Lionel Messi seems to be recovering from a hamstring injury, but is still named among the substitutes. Alcacer will join Neymar and Arda Turan in the Barcelona attack. Javier Mascherano and Jeremy Mathieu are set to start as centre-backs for the Catalan giants.
Denis Suarez, who has been instrumental in midfield, will retain his spot along side Busquets and Rakitic.
