Ernesto Valverde has stuck with Gerard Deulofeu in attack for Barcelona's La Liga showdown with Malaga at Camp Nou this evening.
The 23-year-old performed well in his 45-minute display against Olympiacos in the Champions League in midweek when handed a fifth start of the campaign.
Deulofeu, yet to get off the mark with a goal since rejoining the club in the summer, is partnered with Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez in a side showing two changes from last time out.
Gerard Pique and Paulinho are both absent following on the back of the the 3-1 win over Olympiacos, with Javier Mascherano and Ivan Rakitic filling in.
Barcelona are still without Rafinha, Arda Turan and Jordi Alba, meaning that Lucas Digne continues to deputise at full-back for the latter, as the Catalan giants go in search of a 17th successive home league victory.
In terms of the visitors, they are without a number of first-team players for their trip to the league leaders due to a mixture of injury and suspension.
Diego Gonzalez, Zdravko Kuzmanovic, Recio, Roberto Jimenez and Juan Carlos all miss out, with Malaga aiming to improve on a record that has seen them pick up one win from their first eight games.
