Gerard Piqué and Sergi Roberto both picked up injuries in the 1-0 defeat against Atlético in the Wanda Metropolitano, and this Sunday both players found out the extent of those injuries in more detail. Barça's No.3 has a grade 3 sprain in the internal lateral ligament and partial injury to the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee, while the No.20 has a rupture in the femoral rectus of his right thigh.

It was Piqué's 10th appearance of the season; eight in LaLiga and two in the Champions League. Tests carried out this Sunday have shown that he has a grade 3 sprain in the internal lateral ligament and partial injury to the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee. He is therefore not available for selection, and the evolution of the injury will condition his availability.

Tests performed this Sunday on Sergi Roberto have shown that he has a rupture in the femoral rectus of his right thigh. The approximate time he will be out of action for is two months. This was also the 10th game played by the versatile footballer from Reus; 7 played in LaLiga and the 3 in the Champions League.
