There is no place in the squad for David Villa though. He is back in training too, but still not fit enough to play following the removal of kidney stones.

Adriano is absent after he picked up a muscle problem at the weekend.

Barcelona squad: Valdes, Pinto, Oier, Alves, Pique, Fabregas, Puyol, Xavi, Iniesta, Alexis, Messi, Thiago, Mascherano, Bartra, Sergio, Pedro, Jordi Alba, Montoya, Song, Tello.
