Rangers will be without Brahim Hemdani and Jean-Claude Darcheville for Tuesday's mouth-watering Champions League encounter with Barcelona at Ibrox.
Hemdani has a groin injury while Darcheville has not played for almost four weeks because of a hamstring problem.
Barcelona will be without the injured Deco, Yaya Toure, Samuel Eto'o, Edmilson, Rafael Marquez and Gianluca Zambrotta for the game but Gers boss Walter Smith said: "If they've got a problem (with injuries) then I'm sure they've got more than enough players to cover for that.
"I think this game is equal to when we played Juventus on a previous occasion in the Champions League and they eventually won the trophy that year.
"They were a formidable side at that time - a different type of team to Barcelona - but every bit as effective. They were a terrific side.
"We lost both games against them so I wouldn't like to say Barcelona were better than that side."
