Barcelona Recovered from his fever

Having overcome the illness that kept him from playing against Athletic Club, Barcelona's Javier Mascherano is shaping up to be a starter for Tuesday's match against Olympiacos.

The Argentinian completed Monday evening's training session although he has not yet received medical discharge.

Gerard Pique is suspended against the Greeks after the red card he saw in the previous Champions League match.

Samuel Umtiti will start and the other position will be for either Mascherano or Thomas Vermaelen.

The Belgian was also unable to play in Bilbao either, due to physical problems, but he was medically discharged before leaving Barcelona and is at Ernesto Valverde's disposal.
