Barcelona face Chelsea in the second leg of their Champion League Round of 16 tie, and Ernesto Valverde has called up 18 players to be in uniform on Wednesday night.

This is the full squad:

Goalkeepers: 1. Marc-André ter Stegen, 13. Jasper Cillessen

Defenders: 3. Gerard Piqué, 18. Jordi Alba, 19. Lucas Digne, 20. Sergi Roberto, 23. Samuel Umtiti, 25. Thomas Vermaelen

Midfielders: 4. Ivan Rakitic, 5. Sergio Busquets, 8. Andrés Iniesta, 15. Paulinho Bezerra, 21. André Gomes, 22. Aleix Vidal

Forwards: 9. Luis Suárez, 10. Lionel Messi, 11. Ousmane Dembélé, 17. Paco Alcácer

The big news is the return of captain Andrés Iniesta, who has made a quick return following a hamstring injury and should be fit enough for at least 30 minutes in the second half. There are some bad news, though, with Philippe Coutinho ineligible to play and Nélson Semedo injured. Denis Suarez is also out due to injury, while Yerry Mina is out per the choice of the manager.

Football Highlights

Predicted starting XI (4-4-2):
Ter Stegen; Roberto, Piqué, Umtiti, Alba; Rakitic, Paulinho, Busquets, Gomes; Messi, Suárez
