Line-ups: Almeria-Barcelona

Barcelona have dropped Neymar and Luis Suarez for this afternoon’s La Liga trip to Almeria.

Only Lionel Messi keeps his place in the centre of the attacking triumvirate used in recent weeks, with Munir El Haddadi and Pedro Rodriguez flanking the Argentine.

Elsewhere, Dani Alves and Xavi Hernandez are replaced by Adriano and Rafinha to complete a new-look line-up, while Jeremy Mathieu, Thomas Vermaelen, Andres Iniesta and Sergi Roberto remain sidelined through injury.

Similarly, Almeria opt to make several changes of their own, with the likes of Fran Velez and Thievy Bifouma preferred to frequent starters Mauro dos Santos and Tomer Hemed
