Barcelona's route to the 2020 Copa del Rey is not going to be straightforward, as Athletic Bilbao in front of their own supporters at San Mames stand between them and the semi-finals.
The Blaugrana coasted into the last eight, beating Leganes 5-0 in their previous encounter in the competition. They also warmed up for Thursday's showdown with a 2-1 win over Levante in La Liga on Sunday.
After a brilliant start to the season, Athletic have found wins difficult to come by of late. They advanced into the quarter-finals on penalties having been held to a 0-0 draw at Tenerife and have gone seven matches without a victory in the Spanish top flight.
