Barcelona is preparing to face Levante amid warnings of the risk of suspension threatening several of its key players in La Liga, ahead of the anticipated match against Villarreal in the following round.

According to the Spanish newspaper "Mundo Deportivo," French defender Jules Koundé received a yellow card during the match against Girona, bringing his total to four yellow cards in La Liga. He joins Frenkie de Jong and Gerard Martin on the list of players at risk of suspension.

De Jong and Martin entered the Montilivi match one card away from suspension, and they managed to avoid the penalty until Kounde received a new warning, putting him at risk before facing Levante.

If any of the trio receives a yellow card against Levante, the team will miss them in the following match against Villarreal, a game considered important in the battle for top positions in the league standings.

The report also indicated that Eric Garcia might be the next player at risk of suspension, as he has participated in all 38 matches of the season so far and received his third yellow card during the match against Girona.

Barcelona has not yet faced any absences due to accumulated cards in La Liga this season, but the approaching decisive stage might witness the first suspension as a result of accumulated warnings.
