Barcelona will be aiming to book their spot in the last-16 stage of the Copa del Rey when they tackle fourth-tier outfit Barbastro on Sunday evening.

The Catalan giants recorded a 2-1 win over Las Palmas in La Liga on Thursday, with the result moving Xavi's side back into third position in the table.

The reigning champions looked to be sharing the points with Las Palmas, as the two teams were level heading into the final exchanges, only for Ilkay Gundogan to decide the contest from the penalty spot in the 93rd minute.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Barcelona's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with Barbastro, who are one of only two four-tier teams left in this season's Copa del Rey.
