For this match against Atalanta, the FC Barcelona will once again have Pedri González as a positive addition, who was absent in the previous squad against Valencia CF due to gastroenteritis from which he has now recovered. On the downside, the Barcelona team will be without Andreas Christensen as an option, as the Danish player injured his right calf and will be out of action for approximately three weeks.
