Barcelona boss Xavi has been able to name a full squad for the Spanish Super Cup in Saudi Arabia.

The Catalan outfit will take on Real Betis in the semi-finals of the competition on Thursday evening ahead of a potential final against Real Madrid or Valencia on Sunday.

Barcelona will enter the last-four clash off the back of a 1-0 victory over Atletico Madrid in La Liga, which saw them move three points clear of second-placed Real Madrid at the summit.

Xavi's side had no injury problems for the clash at Wanda Metropolitano, and there have not been any fitness issues since the contest in the Spanish capital.

There were two absentees against Atletico in the shape of Jordi Alba and Robert Lewandowski due to suspensions, but the pair are back in the squad for the Spanish Super Cup.

Alba has now served his ban, although Lewandowski will sit out the next two La Liga matches against Getafe and Girona due to the three-match suspension that Barcelona were unable to overturn.

The Catalan side will not actually be back in La Liga action until January 21, as their next game after the Spanish Super Cup is against Ceuta in the last-16 stage of the Copa del Rey on January 17.

Alba and Lewandowski will both be pushing to return to the starting side against Real Betis, while Xavi has big decisions to make when it comes to his defence and midfield.

Eric Garcia, Marcos Alonso and Sergi Roberto are all options to come into the defence, having been on the bench against Atletico, while one of Pedri, Gavi, Sergio Busquets or Frenkie de Jong could miss out in midfield if Lewandowski returns in the final third of the field.

Raphinha, Ansu Fati and Memphis Depay are also options in attack, with the latter still at the club despite the widespread speculation surrounding his future.

Ferran Torres is also in the squad, with the Spain international available for selection despite receiving a red card in the 1-0 victory over Atletico on Sunday.

Barcelona squad for Spanish Super Cup:

Ter Stegen, Pena, Tenas; Bellerin, Araujo, Christensen, Alonso, Alba, Kounde, E Garcia, Balde; Busquets, Pedri, Kessie, Roberto, F de Jong, Gavi, Torre; Dembele, Lewandowski, Fati, F Torres, Memphis, Raphinha body check tags ::
