Pedro Bigas - Fills stat sheet against BarcelonaBigas had four shots (one on target), made three tackles (all won), three clearances, three interceptions and one block and drew three fouls during Saturday's 4-0 loss against Barc...

ImpactBigas was part of a defensive line that saw the opposition scoring four times but at least made up for that for fantasy purposes, putting up some strong defensive numbers while even leading his side in shots attempted as he was a big threat on aerial plays. Since the end of January, the center back isn't a regular starter but he'll hope this productive outing helps him on the fight for recovering his spot in the lineup.

Gerard Gumbau - Active on both ends versus BarcelonaGumbau had one off-target shot, created two chances, sent in nine crosses (two accurate) and made four tackles (two won) during Saturday's 4-0 loss against Barcelona.

ImpactGumbau was very active against his former club, bringing some danger on set pieces while providing a lot of tenacity in the middle of the park when his side didn't have the ball. Regardless of his positioning, the midfielder has shown his ability to produce on both ends through this campaign with a great mix of playmaking and defensive awareness.

Edgar Badía - Allows four against BarcelonaBadia made one save and conceded four goals during Saturday's 4-0 loss against Barcelona.

ImpactBadia couldn't do much to prevent any of the four goals scored by the opposition. The most problematic issue for the goalkeeper here was the fact that he wasn't able to save more than half of the shots he faced for the third consecutive match. With just three saves and seven goals conceded over his last three starts, Badia will try to bounce back during next Saturday's visit to Osasuna.

Jules Kounde - Active defensively versus ElcheKounde had one shot on goal, made two tackles (one won), seven clearances, two interceptions and one block and helped his side to keep a clean sheet during Saturday's 4-0 win over...

ImpactKounde was once again deployed as a right-back after starting the previous two contests as a center-back but the constant position switching does not affect his numbers at all as he was the one of the better numbers among the members of Barcelona's defensive line. With 20 clearances over his last four starts, Kounde has been definitely trending up as a fantasy contributor.

Marc-Andre Ter Stegen - Keeps clean sheet in win over ElcheTer Stegen made two saves and kept a clean sheet during Saturday's 4-0 win over Elche.

ImpactTer Stegen didn't have much work to do as his side completely dominated the contest and cruised to his third clean sheet over the last four La Liga matches. With an outstanding 20 clean sheets and just nine goals allowed over 27 starts, the goalkeeper is having the best campaign of his already illustrious career.

Gavi - Logs assist in win over ElcheGavi provided an assist, created four chances, made one tackle and three clearances, drew four fouls and was shown a yellow card during Saturday's 4-0 win over Elche.

ImpactGavi had another start as a midfielder with Pedri (thigh) still out and his dynamic play was once again one of the biggest reasons why Barcelona left the pitch with the three points. His assist for Robert Lerwandowski to make it 3-0 midway through the second half was the third of the season and, regardless of his positioning, Gavi's strong and consistent play will remain a difference maker and it will eventually start translating into huge fantasy numbers.

Ferran Torres - Scores, assists in win over ElcheTorres scored a goal off his lone shot, made an assist, created three chances and sent in six crosses (three accurate) during Saturday's 4-0 win over Elche.

ImpactTorres had arguably his best performance since returning from the World Cup, assisting Ansu Fati for his side's second goal, sealing the 4-0 win himself with a beautiful play and a very-well placed strike and being involved in many other dangerous actions throughout the contest. Raphinha, Ousmane Dembele and even Gavi are usually picked over him up front when available but this outing certainly helped Torres on his fight to get more playing time.
