Barcelona will be without the services of three important players for Sunday's La Liga clash with Cadiz.

Ousmane Dembele is still around a month away from returning from a hamstring problem, while Ronald Araujo is suspended for this match following his yellow card against Villarreal in the league last weekend.

Barcelona also suffered an injury blow against Manchester United on Thursday evening in the first leg of their Europa League knockout round playoff clash.

Pedri was forced off in the latter stages of the first half against the Red Devils, and it has now been confirmed that the youngster suffered a hamstring problem, which could rule him out for four weeks.

Sergio Busquets, though, is in contention to return against Cadiz, with the experienced midfielder named in the squad after recovering from an ankle injury.

Head coach Xavi will be forced into at least two changes from Thursday's European affair, with Andreas Christensen and Sergi Roberto potentially coming in for Araujo and Pedri.

However, there could be another change at the back, with Alejandro Balde potentially replacing Jordi Alba.

There are unlikely to be wholesale alterations, though, as Cadiz will arrive at Camp Nou in good confidence, having won two of their last three matches, while the Yellow Submarine famously triumphed away to Barcelona in La Liga last season.

Barcelona possible starting lineup: Ter Stegen; Kounde, Christensen, Alonso, Balde; Roberto, F de Jong, Kessie; Raphinha, Lewandowski, Gavi body check tags ::
