Sports Mole looks at how Barcelona could line up in Sunday night's La Liga clash with Getafe. Barcelona will be looking to return to winning ways in La Liga when they welcome fourth-placed Getafe to Camp Nou on Sunday night. The Catalan giants have already secured the league title, but have lost their last two matches, including a shock 4-0 defeat at Liverpool in the second leg of their Champions League semi-final on Tuesday night. As a result, Barca will not be present in the 2019 Champions League final, but they could still win a domestic double with the Copa del Rey final against Valencia taking place later this month. Ernesto Valverde's side will be keen to return to winning ways after also losing 2-0 at Celta Vigo in the league last weekend, but Getafe have been one of the best teams in Spain's top flight this term. Here, Sports Mole has taken a look at how the hosts could line up on Sunday night. Out: Rafinha (knee), Luis Suarez (knee), Ousmane Dembele (hamstring) Barca will be without the services of Luis Suarez, who has undergone a knee operation. The Uruguay international joins Ousmane Dembele on the sidelines, with a hamstring problem making the attacker unavailable for selection. Rafinha is also still absent as he recovers from knee surgery, but Valverde otherwise has a full squad to choose from heading into Sunday's clash at Camp Nou. Carles Alena and Samuel Umtiti are amongst those who could come into the XI, while Nelson Semedo and Arthur - who both came off the bench at Anfield - might also feature from the start. Youngsters Moussa Wague, Riqui Puig and Abel Ruiz have been involved in first-team training ahead of the match, and there is a chance that all three could make the squad for this contest. Malcom and Philippe Coutinho are also being tipped to start, although both continue to be linked with moves away from the Spanish champions ahead of the opening of this summer's transfer window.<doc-sep>Spanish champions Barcelona beat top-four chasing Getafe 2-0 in front of a subdued and near half-empty Nou Camp on Sunday in their first Liga game since a humbling defeat by Liverpool sent them crashing out of the Champions League semi-finals. Sunday’s result meant little to Barca, who clinched an eighth Liga title in 11 seasons two weeks ago, but it could prove fatal to Getafe’s hopes of qualifying for the Champions League for the first time as they dropped to fifth. Valencia leapfrogged Getafe into fourth due to their superior head-to-head record after beating Alaves 3-1 and will snatch the final Champions League spot if they win at Real Valladolid in their final game of the season next week. Barcelona’s Chilean Arturo Vidal opened the scoring near the end of the first half, poking a loose ball home after Gerard Pique’s flicked header was parried by Getafe keeper David Soria. Barca’s second came in the 90th minute thanks to an own goal after captain Lionel Messi combined with Sergi Roberto and beat two players before his shot got a final touch off Mauro Arambarri.

Forward Philippe Coutinho suffered the bulk of the whistles and boos after his poor display against his old club Liverpool, while veteran midfielder Sergio Busquets was also subjected to boos when he misplaced several passes in the first half. Coutinho’s day got worse when he was forced off injured in the second half. A statement from Barca said the Brazilian had strained his hamstring and would be out for 10 days, meaning he will miss their final league fixture against Eibar. He is set to return two days before the Copa del Rey final against Valencia. Lionel Messi in action vs Getafe (REUTERS) LOWEST POINT Busquets said the defeat by Liverpool was the lowest point of his career and made it more difficult to play against Getafe. “The last few days have been very tough but we wanted to get out of this deep hole we have been in, we have to face the fans, they showed their anger but we have to move on now,” he said. “We are all feeling very low. I have lost trophies and matches but I never had to deal with something like this (the defeat by Liverpool). It’s difficult for everyone although it’s part of the sport. We will all move on together.” Recommended Barcelona confident of adding Ajax captain De Ligt to De Jong signing Barca have one final league game at Eibar next week before facing Valencia in the Copa del Rey final, when they can secure a second successive double although it still might not be enough to keep coach Ernesto Valverde in his job. The defeat at Anfield may also lead to several players leaving the club but Busquets urged the Barca directors to carefully weigh up any decisions. “I think you should evaluate things at the end of the season and consider everything that has been achieved,” he added.

It’s difficult to know what is the best thing for the club but we shouldn’t lose our heads, we must trust each other. “When the season is over decisions will be made but until then we must stick together, do our own thing and focus as much as possible on the Copa del Rey final.”<doc-sep>
