Barcelona enter the second leg of their Copa del Rey quarter-final against Espanyol on Thursday with an uncertain future in the tournament after losing the first game 1-0 at the RCDE Stadium.
The Blaugrana failed to claim a first-leg lead for the second time in as many Copa rounds, and Oscar Melendo's strike has given Los Periquitos a distinct advantage in their pursuit of a semi-final place.
Defeat at the RCDE Stadium last week brought an end to Barca's unbeaten run across all competitions, although a much tougher approach is to be expected from manager Ernesto Valverde's men this time around.
