Sports Mole rounds up all of Barcelona's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their Europa League last-16 second leg with Galatasaray.

Barcelona will aim to book their place in the quarter-finals of the Europa League when they make the long journey to Turkey to take on Galatasaray in the second leg of their last-16 tie on Thursday.

Blaugrana boss Xavi made sweeping changes for the first leg, and the alterations did not pay off as Barca were held to a 0-0 draw by the Super Lig giants at Camp Nou.

The Catalan giants head into this game having put four unanswered goals past Osasuna in La Liga, with Ferran Torres (2), Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Riqui Puig on target.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of the team's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the second leg.
