BARCA TEAM NEWS...MESSI FIT FOR MALAGA TEST SAYS ENRIQUE



Lionel Messi is fit and ready to play for Barcelona in Saturday's La Liga clash at Malaga, according to coach Luis Enrique.
"[Messi] has recovered, has trained and today we will see how the session goes," Luis Enrique said. "I don't believe there will be any problems."
"Malaga are one of the opponents who have made it hardest for us," the Barca coach said. "Javi Gracia knows perfectly how to affect our style of play. Their numbers could be better this season, but at home they have beaten Atletico Madrid and Celta Vigo. It will be a difficult game."
Centre-back Gerard Pique is suspended for Saturday's game, while first choice left-back Jordi Alba is out injured. Their likely replacements are Vermaelen and fit-again Jeremy Mathieu.
Javier Mascherano and Neymar -- who are both on four yellow cards and therefore a booking away from missing next weekend's top-of-the-table clash with Atletico Madrid at the Camp Nou -- are nevertheless set to start, Luis Enrique said.
"I am zero worried and zero concerned," Luis Enrique added. "We already know what we want. If it can happen then perfect, and if not, we will not change at all what we want to achieve."
