The two injured men, Philippe Coutinho and Ivan Rakitic, were trained in the Champions League match against PSV Eindhoven in the Champions League, coach Ernesto Valverde announced Monday.
Valverde spoke at a press conference for the match in the fifth round of the Champions League role and published the Spanish newspaper "Mundo Deportivo".
"We played a game without Messi and we want to win it, if we have a full team we are stronger but that does not change anything," he said. "Almost all the injured players have been on the national teams.
"I think Rakeitch and Coutinho may be on the table, in the previous game we took precautions with Philip, we'll see how Ivan's training will end, but we're optimistic."
"We are qualifying for the next round of the Champions League, but so far we do not know if we will qualify for the second or second group, so we have to win tomorrow to lead the group. We do not think about the rest of our results.
"Yes, we have more goals in La Liga, but in the Champions League we are better."
Valverde said: "We are seeing the teams we are facing, especially the Champions League, and Young is an unusual striker, and for us it is important to stop."
"We are not sure of winning, we are very happy with Eindhoven, they are doing well in the league, they have excellent fast players, so the games they lost in the Champions were the lowest. "
