Barcelona striker Robert Lewandowski is poised to return to the starting lineup for Sunday’s La Liga match against Celta Vigo, marking a significant boost for the defending champions as they aim to maintain their position atop the league table.
Lewandowski has been gradually regaining match fitness following a recent injury layoff, appearing as a substitute in Barcelona’s last two games against Elche and Club Brugge. According to Diario AS and Blaugrana insider Javier Miguel, the Polish international is now “the clear favorite” to lead the attack at Balaídos. This return to the starting eleven comes at a crucial time for Barcelona, providing manager Xavi Hernández with his primary goal-scoring threat.
The 35-year-old’s reintegration into the starting side could also impact other attacking players, with Ferran Torres potentially shifting to the left wing and Marcus Rashford expected to be named among the substitutes. Lewandowski’s presence is expected to revitalize Barcelona’s attack and provide a focal point for their offensive play against Celta Vigo.
