Barcelona host Celta Vigo at the Nou Camp this evening in the eighth round of La Liga, with kick-off scheduled at 9pm local time.
Xavi is expected to rotate his team from midweek in order to rest some of his key players before Barcelona’s reverse Champions League fixture against Inter Milan this coming Wednesday.
