A few days after defeating Valencia CF 0-5 at Mestalla, FC Barcelona are travelling once again to Valencia, this time to face Levante. The Catalans will be playing their fifth La Liga game of the new season on Sunday against Luis Castro’s side, looking to maintain their lead at the top of the league table.
The Blaugranes have already announced the [squad](https://x.com/FCBarcelona/status/2098802236713320664) for this match, as Hansi Flick has called up 24 players for this match. The only players who are not part of this list are Roony Bardghji and Frenkie de Jong, who are both recovering from their injuries, and Jesse Bisiwu, who is expected to play for the reserve team tomorrow.
The most notable change on the list as compared to the one for the match against Feyenoord is the return of the defender Eric Garcia, who was unavailable for the last UCL game due to suspension. [He trained with a protective mask on ahead of this game](https://barcanewsnetwork.com/key-defender-returns-as-barcelona-complete-final-training-session-before-levante/), but is still expected to return to Flick’s starting lineup for this match.
