Iniesta, Sergi Roberto provide timely Barca injury boost

Barcelona midfielders Andres Iniesta and Sergi Roberto have been included in Luis Enrique's 18-man squad to face Getafe on Saturday after overcoming hamstring and groin injuries respectively.

Iniesta has been sidelined for a month since pulling up in a 2-1 win over Bayern Leverkusen, whilst the versatile Roberto returns after just 10 days out.

Their return is a timely boost for the European champions with Enrique's midfield options reduced to the bare bones by Rafinha's long-term knee injury and Javier Mascherano's suspension for Barca's next two league games.

Four-time World Player of the Year Lionel Messi misses out once more as he continues to recover from knee ligament damage.
