FC Barcelona have returned to work after thrashing Osasuna 7-1, with sights set on the derby clash against Espanyol at Cornella on Saturday.

Luis Enrique had his full squad available except for injured players Rafinha, Aleix Vidal and Jeremy Mathieu. To cover the absences, Lucho called up Carles Alena, Carbonell, Marlon and Abeledo. 

 

The team has two days to prepare their visit to their local rivals. Earlier that afternoon Real Madrid host Valencia at the Santiago Bernabeu.
