With Messi and Alba two important players for the offensive output are missing. Eibar is playing either 4-2-3-1 or 4-4-2 this season. They have been using 4-4-2 especially against stronger opposition (Madrid, Sevilla, La Real, Getafe to name a few), so Koeman might stick to the 3-5-2 for another game.
Firpo hasn't impressed at all. Him playing the wingback role at Betis made Barca attentive to him which may be another reason for Koeman choosing 3 at the back with Dembele coming back from injury and probably not playing from the start. Maybe we'll see a 3-5-2 with Braithwaite and Griezmann up front in first half and a system switch in second half with Dembele getting at least half an hour.
