Barcelona star Neymar is set to resume action for Barcelona when they face Espanyol.

The Brazilian was handed a three-match ban for sarcastically applauding a referee when he was shown a red card against Malaga earlier this month.
 

Neymar missed the games against Real Sociedad, Real Madrid and Osasuna.

Barcelona boss Luis Enrique told the press:

"He (Neymar) is a specialist in putting up with those situations.

"If there is a player who is on the floor [because of poor challenges], it is Neymar.

"Yes, he's been sent off a few times but he will be vital for us."
