Barcelona set to have a fully fit squad for their upcoming match against Espanyol after receiving a fitness boost.

Barcelona are gearing up for their crucial La Liga clash against Espanyol this weekend, with hopes of securing their first league title in three seasons. The team will be boosted by the news that head coach Xavi Hernandez will have a fully fit squad at his disposal for the game.

According to reports, the only player who has been missing from recent matches has been Sergi Roberto due to a thigh injury sustained in mid-April. However, he is expected to be given the green light by the medical team ahead of the Espanyol game.

Despite his return to fitness, it is unlikely that Roberto will start the match, with Jules Kounde being the first-choice right-back for Xavi. Roberto is expected to serve as a rotational option in midfield.

Xavi has also been considering calling up another youngster for the match, with Lamine Yamal unavailable. However, the senior squad looks set to be fully fit, giving Xavi a rare opportunity to have all his resources available for selection.

Barcelona are currently two points clear of second-placed Real Madrid, and a win against Espanyol would secure the title with one game to spare. The club is already making preparations for the title party, with fans expected to gather at Camp Nou to celebrate their triumph.
