Barcelona are currently without injured striker Robert Lewandowski, due to injury.

Lewandowski is Barca’s top scorer with six goals already this season.

The team has struggled a bit in his absence, but Lewy is closing in on a return from his ankle worries.

Barça boss Xavi has said the Poland forward “has a very good feeling” of returning against Real Madrid.

Xavi said: “He’s a great leader and always goes forward, he wants to be there and he’s hurting less and less every day.

“He has a very good feeling. He always pulls himself forward.

“But there is a lot of variety (in attack) and people with confidence in front of goal. That is great. Last year, we depended a lot on Lewandowski.”
