Coach Quique Setien confirmed that Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez are preparing to set off for Barcelona against Real Mallorca.
After the end of the offseason forced by the Coronavirus, Barcelona returned to La Liga on Saturday and took their son Son Moix to play. After winning against the threatened relegation opponents, they will continue to lead the summit.

Spain's defending champion is two points higher than Real Madrid, who did not start action until he received Ebal in the capital on Sunday.

Before his recovery, Messi’s physical condition was a major problem-the leggings forward handled the quadriceps injury-but since he resumed training earlier this week, he has not suffered any setbacks.

Saidian said at the pre-match press conference: "He is ready for the game and he can do it. He is well-trained and has no problems."

"Messi and many of these players know how to measure things and how to save their power when necessary.

"About rest, we will see. For some people, the longer they spend on the court, the better."

As for Suarez, the striker seems to have been set to miss the rest of the 2019-20 season due to a knee injury before the Covid-19 pandemic.

Now, whether in domestic duties or in the UEFA Champions League, Uruguay international players have rearranged the season break-in.

However, Setien will be cautious about players who return after long layoffs, which means that Suarez will not play a full role in the game against Mallorca.

The Barcelona boss explained: "Of course, he will be a starter, but not for a full 90 minutes."

"After five months we will no longer take risks. This will be a good thing for his game, he will need the same game as before."

Suarez has scored 14 goals in all competitions this season, but has not appeared since January 9.

Barcelona are still alive in the 16th round of the Champions League, and in the first round of the game they drew 1-1 with Napoli in Sao Paulo#aclotzone

The date of the second game has not yet been determined, but Blaugrana took the away goal position in Naples.
