Nelson Semedo is facing a lengthy spell on the sidelines with an injury – likely around five weeks (as per Sport) – while Sergi Roberto is suspended for the clash.

This leaves manager Ernesto Valverde with somewhat of a selection headache ahead of the Blaugrana’s upcoming league match against Leganes.
Wague should, in theory, be called upon to start the match considering he is the only other right-back in the first-team squad, though Valverde has been reluctant to use him at all this season, deploying central midfielder Sergi Roberto on the right-hand side of defence instead of the 21-year-old.
With Roberto ruled out through suspension, though, there is a huge opportunity for Wague to feature, and, if he does, he’ll have a great chance to show his manager exactly what he is capable of.
