Barcelona could leapfrog Real Madrid to the second place in the Spanish La Liga points table with a win over Deportivo Alaves at home. With Atletico Madrid five points clear at the top and having two games in hand, they are the favourites to lift the title but for Barcelona, a second place finish would be considered progress considering their dire condition at one stage. Barcelona come into the contest after being outplayed by Sevilla in the first leg of the Copa Del Rey semi-final. What must be troubling Ronald Koeman is the way their midfield failed to get to the grips of the game. Opponents Alaves are 16th in the table and but just two points from the drop zone. Defeat at the hands of Barcelona could set the alarm bells ringing again. BAR vs ALA Dream11 Prediction in La Liga 2020–21: Tips To Pick Best Team for Barcelona vs Deportivo Alaves Football Match.

Ronald Koeman has a lot of thinking to do in terms of team selection with PSG game on the horizon. Lionel Messi is set to play as a forward for the hosts with Pedri occupying the no 10 slot. Antoine Griezmann and Ousmane Dembele like to drift inside from the wide and this will allow Lionel Messi to drop deep and orchestrate attacking moves. The defence comprising Samuel Umtiti and Clement Lenglet have question marks over their ability but should be good enough for Alaves.

Victor Laguardia is back fit and could be inducted into the starting eleven by manager Abelardo. Rodrigo Ely in defence is the only major absentee for the visitors heading into the crunch game. Joselu and Lucas Perez are quality names in the forward line but are in danger of being mute spectators in the game with very limited supply from midfield. Lionel Messi Reacts After Guiding Barcelona to 3-2 Triumph Over Real Betis in La Liga 2020-21.
