Hello everybody and welcome along to this Marca in English live blog for the LaLiga EA Sports fixture of Leganes vs Barcelona this Saturday evening.

The Catalans know that a win this evening will have them move a comfortable seven points clear of second-placed Real Madrid, with their treble dreams still very much alive in mid-April.

Leganes, though, are sitting 18th and scrapping for survival at the bottom, starting the weekend two points off Alaves in 17th.

The hosts are going to have to cope without Enric Franquesa again as he remains out long-term, but they will have Oscar Rodriguez back among the available players.

For Barcelona, then, Ronald Araujo and Gavin will be hoping to start, as will Ferran Torres, but they will have to do without Dani Olmo, Marc Casado, Marc Bernal and Marc-Andre per Stegen.
