Xavi Hernandez has published his squad list for the clash with Benfica in the Champions League on Tuesday night.
B team players Inaki Pena, Nico, Gavi, and Alejandro Balde are still there, while the big news is the return of Ousmane Dembele and Sergino Dest.
There is still no Ansu Fati, Pedri or Martin Braithwaite. The players who got knocks at the weekend, Sergio Busquets, Oscar Mingueza and Nico Gonzalez, are included and fine to play.

The squad list is as follows: Ter Stegen, Dest, Piqué, Araujo, Busquets, Riqui Puig, Dembélé, Memphis, Demir, Neto, Coutinho, Lenglet, Luuk De Jong, Jordi Alba, Frenkie De Jong, Òscar Mingueza, Umtiti, Eric Garcia, Iñaki Peña, Balde, Nico, Gavi and Balde.
The game is crucial because if Barcelona win, they are in the last 16, if they draw or lose then things are looking extremely difficult.
