Barcelona team news
Xavi will welcome back Dani Alves after the Brazilian served the last of his two-match ban in the 4-1 victory over Valencia last weekend.
Still, the Barcelona boss is wrestling with a spate of injury issues, with Ansu Fati, Memphis Depay, Clement Lenglet, Samuel Umtiti and Alex Balde set to miss out. Sergi Roberto is also a doubt.
Athletic Club team news
Oier Zarraga is set to return from suspension for Marcelino's side after he missed last weekend's 4-0 win over Real Sociedad.
However, Nico Williams remains doubtful with a hamstring problem, while Ander Capa recently tested positive for Covid-19.
Barcelona vs Athletic Club head-to-head record
Xavi's men will be keen to make amends for last month's 3-2 defeat to Athletic Club in the last 16 of the Copa del Rey.
Iker Muniain's extra-time penalty sunk Barcelona that evening, although the Catalan side are unbeaten in their last three meetings with their Basque neighbours.
Barca ran out 2-1 winners against Athletic Club when the two sides met at the Camp Nou last season, with both goals coming from players who have now departed the club (Lionel Messi and Antoine Griezmann).
Barcelona vs Athletic Club score prediction
Barcelona are unbeaten at home under Xavi since that disappointing defeat to Real Betis back in December.
They flexed their goalscoring muscles in midweek again by hitting a title-chasing Napoli side for four, with the forward arrivals of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Adama Traore and Ferran Torres looking devastating.
However, confidence will be oozing through Athletic's veins after last weekend's derby victory, so expect them to go toe-to-toe with Xavi's side.
Prediction: Barcelona 2-2 Athletic Club
