A place in the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey is at stake on Wednesday night, when Barcelona head to the Basque Country to square off against Athletic Bilbao.
Xavi's men have overcome two lower-league outfits in Barbastro and Unionistas to make it this far, sinking the former 3-2 before battling to a 3-1 away win over the latter team earlier this month.
Victory over Athletic would mark a third win in a row for Barca across all tournaments, as thanks in no small part to a Ferran Torres hat-trick, the Blaugrana beat Real Betis 4-2 in La Liga action over the weekend.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up Barcelona's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with Athletic, whose last-32 clash with Eibar ended in a routine 3-0 triumph.

Ter Stegen was not the only November international casualty for Barcelona, whose former Kopa Trophy winner Gavi sustained an ACL injury while playing for Spain, and he is not expected to feature again this season.
