Barcelona will aspire to advance to the last-16 of the 2021-22 Europa League when they meet Napoli in the second leg of their playoff encounter on Thursday night.
Xavi's side were held to a 1-1 draw at Camp Nou in the first leg, as Piotr Zielinski's effort was cancelled out by Ferran Torres's second-half penalty.
La Blaugrana warmed up for this encounter in ideal fashion with a 4-1 La Liga thumping of Valencia at the Mestalla, but the injury problems are not letting up for Xavi.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of the team's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the second leg.
