Barcelona vs Real Sociedad: Lineups and LIVE updates

Barcelona welcome Real Sociedad tonight with a place in the last four of the Copa del Rey at stake as Xavi would be eager to guide the Catalans a step closer towards their second title of the season, having defeated Real Madrid in the Supercopa de Espaa final earlier this month.

The Catalans entered the quarter-final on the back of a 5-0 drubbing of AD Ceuta in the Round of 16, with Raphinha, Ansu Fati and Robert Lewandowski (brace) getting their names on the scoresheet. Franck Kessi, who has so far played every minute of Barcelona's Copa del Rey campaign in an otherwise frustrating season, also found the back of the net.
