Barca rolled over Elche during the midweek to advance in the Copa del Rey, but must quickly return their focus to league play, despite a looming quarterfinal first leg against Atletico Madrid. Luis Enrique rested several starters during he midweek, including Lionel Messi, Neymar and Luis Suarez, all of whom are expected to return for Sunday's match.
The last time Barca played at the Razor was in October 2012 when Messi’s hat trick helped lead the visitors to a 5-4 victory in a wild match. Depor are fighting near the bottom of the league, just three points clear of the relegation zone. Victor Fernandez would love to pull off an upset of the Catalan giants, but any points would be welcome at this juncture as Depor looks to avoid returning to the second division.
Xavi has returned to training, but the medical staff has yet to officially clear him to return after missing the last few matches with a calf strain.
