With their spirits high after the 3-2 win against Paris Saint Germain in the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals first leg, FC Barcelona return to action in La Liga as they face Cadiz away from home.
The Catalans have the second leg of the tie against PSG to look forward to this Tuesday, but will also have to give their full attention to the game against Cadiz as they cannot afford to drop any more points in La Liga if they want to remain in the race to retain their league title.
Fortunately for Xavi, Barcelona now have almost their full squad available, with the exception of players who are out for a long time, i.e., Alejandro Balde and Gavi. Frenkie de Jong, Pedri, and Christensen were able to feature in the game against PSG and have fully recovered from their injuries.
However, Robert Lewandowski, Joao Cancelo, and Inigo Martinez are all suspended for this game, as their yellow cards in the 1-0 win against Las Palmas accumulated to cause a one-match suspension. They will all be available for the upcoming match against Real Madrid however.
Thus, these players are not a part of the 23-man squad published by FC Barcelona for the game against Cadiz. However, some quarry players like Casado, Guiu, Fort, and Faye have been called up by Xavi.
