Barcelona are hopeful of receiving a triple injury boost for Saturday's La Liga contest with Real Madrid.
Raphinha trained alongside his teammates on Thursday after seemingly overcoming a hamstring problem, and the Brazil international is expected to be in the squad for El Clasico.
Robert Lewandowski and Frenkie de Jong are now expected to join in Friday's session, with the pair, who have been out with ankle problems, likely to be included if they are able to come through unscathed.
At this stage, Lewandowski has the best chance of starting, with the Poland international set to replace Ferran Torres in the final third of the field for this match.
Joao Felix's fitness was called into question when he limped off during Wednesday's 2-1 win over Shakhtar Donetsk in the Champions League, but he should be cleared to start on the left.
However, Barcelona will definitely be without the services of Sergi Roberto, Pedri and Jules Kounde.
Head coach Xavi has a big decision to make at the back, with Andreas Christensen and Inigo Martinez battling to start alongside Ronald Araujo, and the latter could just be given the nod.
Gavi is back from a European suspension and will start in midfield, with Oriol Romeu and Ilkay Gundogan also expected to be included in the middle.
Lamine Yamal is also set to be given the nod in the final third on what will be a monumental afternoon for the 16-year-old, who has become a vital player for the Catalan outfit this term.
Barcelona possible starting lineup: Ter Stegen; Cancelo, Araujo, Martinez, Balde; Gavi, Romeu, Gundogan; Yamal, Lewandowski, Felix
