Robert Lewandowski is ruled out for Barcelona with the club’s leading scorer nursing a hamstring injury. The Poland international will sit out tonight’s final and the upcoming clash with Inter Milan in the Champions League. It is hoped the veteran will return in mid-May.

Lewandowski joins Marc Casado, Marc Bernal and Marc-Andre ter Stegen on the sidelines, while Alejandro Balde has failed to recover in time from a hamstring issue of his own. Dani Olmo should continue in an advanced midfield role after scoring in consecutive La Liga games.
