Barcelona is now in a great position. In their first Champions League group stage meeting on Tuesday, Xavi Hernandez’s team destroyed Royal Antwerp, extending their winning streak to five games in all competitions.

As Ronald Araujo prepares to return to competition, Barcelona’s good fortune continues. The Uruguayan’s hamstring injury kept him out of play after the team’s opening-day draw with Getafe.

He has, nevertheless, spent the last few days engaged in intensive training. He wasn’t risked against Antwerp by Barcelona, but if all goes well, he’ll be in the matchday squad for this weekend’s match against Celta Vigo, according to MD.

With Araujo’s comeback, Xavi will have some difficulty making a decision. Araujo might find it challenging to restore his starting position for Barcelona given how outstanding Jules Kounde and Andreas Christensen have been over the past few weeks.
