Quique Setien has called up 20 players for Thursday's Copa del Rey quarterfinal against Athletic Club at San Mames in Bilbao. 

Both Gerard Pique and Arturo Vidal are included. Pique had missed training on Wednesday with a fever but will travel, as will Vidal who was injured for Sunday's win over Levante. 

Barcelona are still without the injured Luis Suarez and Ousmane Dembele -- neither may appear again this season -- and goalkeeper Neto. 

Setien has called up several B team players to complete the squad. Iñaki Peña, Riqui Puig, Roland Araujo and Alex Collado will all travel. 

Remember that the Copa del Rey is no longer two-legs until the semifinal, so Thursday's last eight game will be decided on the night. 

 

The squad is made up of: Ter Stegen, Iñaki Peña, Semedo, Sergi Roberto, Lenglet, Umtiti, Piqué, Jordi Alba, Junior Firpo, Sergio Busquets, Frenkie de Jong, Rakitic, Arturo Vidal, Arthur, Messi, Ansu Fati, Griezmann, Riqui Puig, Araujo and Collado.
