"The biggest takeaway from the starting eleven against Levante is Joao Cancelo. The Portuguese international starts ahead of Alejandro Balde at left-back, while Jules Kounde continues on the opposite flank. Gerard Martin is a suspension risk and is one booking away from becoming ineligible to play against Villarreal. But he starts in central defence alongside Eric Garcia, with Pau Cubarsi rested."
"In midfield, Flick has introduced Marc Bernal, who starts alongside Frenkie de Jong and Dani Olmo. That means Fermin Lopez starts on the bench. Pedri, meanwhile, is available but he starts on the bench as well and may come on as a late substitute. In the attacking department, Flick has brought back Robert Lewandowski, even though the Pole has struggled to score lately. He starts ahead of Ferran Torres and will be partnered by Raphinha and Lamine Yamal, who will be fasting due to Ramadan."
