Barcelona predicted lineup vs Celta Vigo - La Liga

Barcelona's final game of the 2022/23 La Liga season sees Xavi's side visit Celta Vigo on Sunday night.
La Blaugrana wrapped up the league title with time to spare and are now preparing for what is sure to be a hectic summer at Camp Nou, with Lionel Messi's up-in-the-air return to Catalonia dominating the news.
Sunday's fixture is against Celta, who are scrapping for La Liga survival down at the bottom of the table.
Here's the side Xavi could send out to finish off the 2022/23 season, with a few emotional departures on the horizon.
Barcelona predicted lineup vs Celta Vigo (4-3-3)
GK: Marc-Andre ter Stegen - Picked up his 26th clean sheet of the season in the 3-0 win over Mallorca. One more will move him clear of Deportivo La Coruna's record set in 1993/94.
RB: Sergi Roberto - Has been tipped to take the club captaincy once Busquets leaves, which would be a huge show of faith in the utility man.
CB: Jules Kounde - Recently clarified he has no plans to leave Barça this summer so soon after joining. A start at centre-back would likely be preferred by the Frenchman, who has featured regularly at right-back.
CB: Andreas Christensen - Has had injury problems at points this season but has enhanced his reputation after some good years at Chelsea with the La Liga title win.
LB: Jordi Alba - Alejandro Balde won't feature after suffering an ankle injury, so Alba will get the chance to make his 460th and final appearance for Barça before his summer exit. Joined from Valencia in 2012.
CM: Frenkie de Jong - Will hope not to court as much transfer interest this summer as he did last year, having consistently reaffirmed his desire to stay at Camp Nou.
CM: Sergio Busquets - Joining Alba in leaving after the trip to Vigo is Busquets, who has been ever present since breaking into the Barça squad in 2008.
CM: Gavi - 18-year-old Gavi won his first senior team prizes with Barça this season, having previously picked up the Kopa Trophy and Golden Boy awards in 2022.
RW: Ousmane Dembele - Has contributed five goals and six assists in La Liga this season, but more importantly has been fit to feature more regularly than in recent years.
ST: Robert Lewandowski - Looks set to pick up his first Pichichi Trophy, unless Karim Benzema goes truly goal-crazy for Real Madrid.
LW: Ansu Fati - Was told back in May he is free to leave Barça this summer. Will hope to add to the two goals he grabbed against Mallorca.
