Barcelona boss Xavi is unlikely to make many changes to his starting XI for Monday's La Liga clash with Cadiz.

However, there will have to be at least two alterations from Thursday's Europa League quarter-final second leg with Eintracht Frankfurt, with Pedri and Ronald Araujo both out of this contest.

Pedri is set to miss the remainder of the campaign with the hamstring injury that he suffered against Frankfurt, while Araujo is unavailable for selection against Cadiz through suspension.

Samuel Umtiti and Sergi Roberto are also out of this match through injury despite recently returning to training, while Gerard Pique and Ansu Fati have been left out of the squad for the contest.

Clement Lenglet could feature at the back alongside Eric Garcia with Pique not being risked, while Gavi is expected to take Pedri's spot in midfield to play alongside Sergio Busquets and Frenkie de Jong.

There are unlikely to be any changes in the final third of the field, though, with Ousmane Dembele, Ferran Torres and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang set to feature as the front three.

That said, Xavi has plenty of options if he wants to freshen his side, with Adama Traore, Luuk de Jong and Memphis Depay also pushing to be involved in attacking areas.

Barcelona possible starting lineup: Ter Stegen; Alves, Lenglet, E Garcia, Alba; F de Jong, Busquets, Gavi; Dembele, Aubameyang, Torres
