07 FEB 2026 — FC Barcelona Women will face DUX Logroño without Alexia Putellas, who suffered a contusion to the left quadriceps during the Copa de la Reina tie against Real Madrid and is ruled out for this fixture. The squad wants to dedicate the match and a possible victory to their injured teammate.
The biggest blow, however, is the serious injury to defender Laia Aleixandri. She damaged her right knee in the Copa de la Reina quarter-final versus Real Madrid and will have surgery to address an injury to the anterior cruciate ligament. As a result, Aleixandri will miss the remainder of the season and will be unavailable for several months as she undergoes the operation and recovery under coach Pere Romeu’s medical staff.
Barcelona return to LaLiga F action this Sunday at Las Gaunas at 18:00 to play DUX Logroño. The Catalans enter as clear favourites against a side sitting second‑from‑bottom and fighting to avoid relegation alongside Alhama and Levante. DUX arrive with momentum after a recent win over Alhama that lifted them out of the drop zone, and the club has urged supporters to come and fill the stadium.
In addition to Aleixandri, the squad has been coping with long‑term absences such as Aitana Bonmatí and the continued absence of Mapi León, although the latter is expected to return to action soon. Alexia Putellas now joins the list of unavailable players.
February offers a relatively kind schedule for Barça with matches against Logroño, Eibar and Granada before a busy March that includes Copa semi-finals against Badalona Women and a return to the UEFA Women’s Champions League. Romeu can rotate players who looked tired after the Real Madrid clash, using the squad depth to maintain high intensity. With their strong numbers in both attack and defence and a recognizable approach centered on possession, pressing after loss and frequent entries into the opponent’s box, Barcelona will aim to consolidate top spot and move decisively toward the league title.
