BARCELONA-ESPANYOL
André Gomes dropped from the list for tonight's Catalan derby
The Portuguese midfielder has been left out for technical decision. Nor does Aleix Vidal feature in the 18-man list. Mathieu remains out injured.
The omission of André Gomes was the most striking feature in Luis Enrique's squad list for this evening's Catalan derby.

Also out on technical grounds are Jordi Masip and Aleix Vidal.
