The Catalan club is back in the knockout stage of the Champions League after two consecutive group-stage eliminations. It still had Lionel Messi the last time it made it to the round of 16.

Barcelona has been eliminated in the Copa del Rey and is eight points behind leader Real Madrid in the Spanish league. Xavi recently announced he will leave the club at the end of the season.
