Barcelona, dealing with a spate of injuries so far this season, received some good news ahead of Saturday's match against Sevilla, as goalkeeper Claudio Bravo recovered from his calf injury and will start the contest at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan Stadium.
The Chilean shot-stopper, who last played in late August before suffering the ailment in training, returned to the practice field earlier this week and earned the nod against Sevilla, the club announced Friday.
With Bravo regaining his place in the starting lineup, Marc-Andre ter Stegen - who started every match in his stead - drops back to the bench.
