Dembele to make Barca comeback against Atletico

0

Ousmane Dembele will make his comeback for Barcelona against Atletico Madrid this weekend.

The winger has missed 13 games after picking up a hamstring problem in January but is back in training this week in a huge boost to their LaLiga title hopes

Sky Sports News understands that manager Xavi wants to play him in what could be a decisive fixture at the Nou Camp, with Barca having the chance to extend their lead at the top of the table to 14 points.

Barca have clung on to their league form without Dembele but his absence has affected them, especially striker Robert Lewandowski, and they were knocked out of the Copa del Rey by Real Madrid earlier this month.

With Dembele on the pitch, Lewandowski has scored 22 goals in 23 games this season - a ratio of 0.96 per match - but, without him, Lewandowski has scored just five in 13 (0.38pg).
