Barcelona manager Xavi will welcome two attackers back from suspension for Wednesday's Copa del Rey quarter-final against Real Sociedad at Camp Nou.

Robert Lewandowski and Ferran Torres were both absent from Sunday's 1-0 win over Getafe as they continued to serve their La Liga bans, but the pair are fine to return for the cup.

However, Andreas Christensen has emerged as a slight doubt due to hamstring discomfort, with the Denmark centre-back coming off at half time at the weekend, but he represents Xavi's solitary injury concern.

Should Xavi decide against taking any risks on Christensen, Ronald Araujo - who was rested on Sunday - is seemingly a shoo-in to partner Eric Garcia in the heart of the backline.

Inaki Pena has enjoyed a pair of Copa del Rey starts this term, but Xavi may give the nod to Marc-Andre ter Stegen - whom he waxed lyrical about over the weekend - given the calibre of opposition.

Jules Kounde should hold his place at right-back, but Jordi Alba replaced Alejandro Balde at half time in the win over Getafe and is a candidate to come in from the first whistle.

A refreshed Frenkie de Jong could also come back into the engine room alongside Pedri and Sergio Busquets - demoting Gavi to the bench unless Xavi opts to utilise the Spanish teenager out wide.

However, Raphinha will be in no mood to cede the left-wing spot, as Ousmane Dembele also provides support to the returning Lewandowski in the final third.
