Barcelona round off the fourth gameweek in La Liga on Sunday evening when they visit Osasuna in the north of Spain.

Xavi's side have picked up seven points from the opening three games but haven't looked as threatening as usual in attack, with Robert Lewandowski hinting at his displeasure at playing with fewer forwards.

Here's what you need to know ahead of the fixture.

How to watch Osasuna vs Barcelona on TV and live stream

Osasuna team news

Darko Brasanac is the only confirmed injury absentee for Osasuna, though manager Jagoba Arrasate still has a few calls to make after beating Valencia and drawing with Club Brugge.

Forward Chimy Avila could come back into the starting XI after serving a suspension while Juan Cruz and Jesus Areso will hope to keep their spots.

Barcelona team news

Barcelona are still finishing off their transfer business for the summer but Xavi will have a clear idea of the players he intends to use this weekend.

Lamine Yamal received his first Spain call-up and should receive another start on the left wing on Sunday. Pedri could return but Barca might be wise and elect not to rush the young midfielder back from his quadriceps injury.

Barcelona predicted lineup vs Osasuna

Barcelona predicted lineup vs Osasuna (4-2-3-1): Ter Stegen; Roberto, Kounde, Christensen, Balde; Romeu, De Jong; Gavi, Gundogan, Yamal; Lewandowski.

Osasuna vs Barcelona score prediction

Stars like Lewandowski may well be moaning about Barca's lack of attacking cohesion so far but this clash against an impressive Osasuna won't be one they run wild in. Los Rojillos have been defensively stringent without offering loads of attacking threat.

Barca nonetheless remain favourites to claim all three points at El Sadar but performances have lacked fluency thus far and an edgy win might be on the cards for the visitors.

Prediction: Osasuna 0-1 Barcelona
