      <title>Barca suffer blow as Pedri ruled out for a month</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330451323/barca-suffer-blow-as-pedri-ruled-out-for-a-month</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Barcelona have suffered a setback with midfielder Pedri expected to be out for around a month after sustaining a hamstring injury during Wednesday’s 4-2 Champions League victory over Slavia Prague, the Spanish champions said on Thursday.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The 23-year-old Spain international, a key figure in Hansi Flick’s midfield set-up, was forced off in the 61st minute.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Pedri has featured in 25 matches across all competitions this season, contributing two goals and eight assists.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Barca top LaLiga with a one-point lead over arch-rivals Real Madrid, who are in second place. They next host Real Oviedo on Sunday as they prepare for a testing run of games without Pedri.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The win in Prague lifted Barca to ninth place in the Champions League standings with one game remaining on 13 points, level with seven other teams vying for a top-eight finish and direct qualification for the round of 16.&lt;/p&gt;
