Ibiza vs Barcelona head-to-head record
This will be the first-ever clash between Ibiza and the Barcelona first-team. The Segunda Division B side have crossed paths with Barca B before but never the Spanish Primera Division side. However, they will have the home advantage and this will be a single-leg showdown, increasing the odds of an upset.
Team news
It comes as no surprise, but several of Barcelona's big guns will be rested for this tie. Lionel Messi and Gerard Pique have both been left out of the squad while Sergio Busquets is suspended.
Griezmann, De Jong, Arthur, and Rakitic are a few of the first-team aces to make the trip. Several youngsters have also gotten the nod, including Carles Pérez, Riqui Puig, Abel Ruiz, Ansu Fati and Chumi.
The fact that this game is being played on artificial grass might make it difficult for the Catalan giants, as it is not something they are used to. However, it’s something Setien and the players must cope with if they wish to progress in the Copa del Rey.
