The round of 16 will be a one-off match, with all the fixtures set to take place on Wednesday, January 15.
For now, Barcelona now have the potential to face 15 different teams, but it won’t be until January 6 that they know the full list of possible opponents.
This is because Real Madrid and Valencia will both play their Copa del Rey on January 6 and 7 respectively, which will finalize the last few spots in the competition.
