Barcelona will be aiming to return to winning ways in La Liga when they welcome Atletico Madrid on Sunday.

The Catalan giants booked their spot in the knockout round of the Champions League with a game to spare courtesy of a 2-1 success over Porto on Tuesday night.

Xavi's side were held to a 1-1 draw by Rayo Vallecano in the league last weekend, though, and they currently sit fourth in the La Liga table, four points behind the leaders Real Madrid.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Barcelona's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with Atletico, who are third in Spain's top flight, level on points (31) with their opponents here and also boasting game in hand.
