Barcelona striker Robert Lewandowski is set to play in El Clásico against Real Madrid on April 21 after his one-game suspension was confirmed by La Liga’s competition committee, according to Mundo Deportivo.

The Polish international was shown a yellow card for timewasting during his substitution in the win over Las Palmas on Saturday and there was some speculation that the striker could be handed a two-game ban for intentionally getting himself suspended for the clash against Cádiz so he could be available for the trip to Madrid, but no further action was taken and the standard one-game suspension was upheld.
