[DonAK]

Just would replace Mathieu with Mascherano and is Alves fit to play?

Yeah Alves will be fit and available for the game.

Valencia are good enough to beat us even if we go full strength. We barely managed to win at Mestalla where they probably deserved a point atleast. They have beaten Real Madrid and Atletico at home and drew against Atletico at the Calderon where they also could have gone on to win.

Even though this is at Camp Nou, they should not be underestimated. It's important that we win and keep the lead at top to have the psychological advantage over Real Madrid and we also have an away game vs Espanyol and Atletico to face.

Is Valencia really that good? I have seen that they have really good results in 2015, but come on, they are still trailing Atletico, which is not that impressive these past few months. They should still be a level below and its a home match.

Just like Atletico they've been underwhelming against the 'easier' sides.

Suarez's nick in the VAL forums is apparently the tooth-man .

Atletico has been underwhelming against the bigger side as well, except for us, of course...

If the match was in Valencia I'd be worried, but away they are not that great, in fact they were horrible earlier, they somewhat improved lately, but still Valencia away and at home are like 2 different teams. 3:0 Barca, Messi brace, and Suarez another one.

I don't think we we used too much energy in the PSG match, we controlled most of the game and played with less intensity, quick passing and movement than some other big games, a few rotations for this game but nothing crazy.

No time for turn over, the best 11 must play, Valencia is one of the strongest team this season, they are very compact and technical, they are good in possession football and on the counters, the match will be as hard as El classico.

I'll try again the midfield Masche/Busquets/Xavi who impressed me in the PSG game.

The 3 point are what matters, I'll be happy with a 1-0.
