BAR Vs GRD Dream11 Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: A new era gets underway for Barcelona as they play their first match under new tutelage.
Letting slip a 1-0 lead to Atletcio Madrid and then a 2-1 one to be thumped 3-2 in the semi-final of the Spanish Super Cup meant Valverde’s time at Barcelona was done with. While it was a development which took way too long in developing with Valverde playing some extremely dreary football, the club’s supporters were jubilant that it finally got underway.
With Quique Setien having been instated at the club as their new manager, the side will be looking to overhaul their underachieving form this season. The new manager will be taking charge of the club for his first outing today as he veers up to come across Granada.
And the club’s supporters will be ardently wishing that he’s able to get his new reign off with a win to his name given the recent spate of results. They drew their previous encounter 2-2 to Espanyol the last time around, their third draw in the last five encounters to refrain them from making massive strides in the points tally.
Probable Winner
Granada did manage to scrape up a 1-0 win against Real Mallorca the last time around, but there’s no taking away the fact that they are languishing in 10th place in the league standings. Barcelona might have massive problems defensively off late, but they should manage to do more than enough to register a win to their name.

BAR Vs GRD Dream11 Goal-Keeper
With both these sdes waning and wavering defensively, we are not going to get a cleansheet from today’s upcoming clash. It sees us move in with the more articulate goal-keeper for today’s imminent tie, something which alludes us towards Rui Silva from Granada given his ability to herald his way a slew of save points.
BAR Vs GRD Dream11 Defenders
While Granada are paper thin in defence, the side have managed to show reslliance and fortitude when it comes to the attacking side of their game. And it’s something which will serve them fruitfully as they look to pile on the goals against a Barcelona defence vulnerable infront of vicious attacking units.
It makes today’s encounter one where we are not going to see either side revel us in a cleansheet to see us limit our side to just the three attacking selections. We begin with Barcelona’s defenders with the duo being capable of proving an attacking shot in the arm to the side.
It’s a discourse which sees us opt for both Sergi Roberto and Charles Lenglet while from Granada we are getting in just the one pick in the form of German Sanchez.
BAR Vs GRD Dream11 Midfielders
Granda’s leading goal scorer with the four goals to his name, we are beginning with the pick of Antonio Puertas for today’s impending outing. He’s paired up with Alvaro Vadillo who has scored the three goals, a partnership which has persistently provided unstinted support to the side’s attacking soirees.
Darwin Machis is brought in as well by us for the upcoming encounter while from Barcelona we are beginning with Ansu Fati. He looks likely to be brought back into the side’s playing 11 given Suarez’s injury at the moment and after his quirky displays in the opening exchanges of the season, we envision him playing a solid role for the side today.
Ivan Rakitic comes in from the side as well for this outing to wrap up this ambit of our Dream 11 side.
BAR Vs GRD Dream11 Strikers
Barcelona’s leading scorer with 13 goals to his name, Lionel Messi was always going to be a player who we were going to indulge in for this contest. We have 7 goal man, Antoine Griezmann being brought in as well as we move in for a one-two from Barcelona for this forthcoming clash.
Captain And Vice-Captain
Mesii will captain our team while Antoine Griezmann is the vice-captain.
