FC Barcelona continue their quest for a treble as they face Albacete in the quarterfinals of the Copa Del Rey on Tuesday.
Barcelona is fresh off a 3-1 win over Elche on Saturday, thanks to goals from Lamine Yamal, Ferran Torres and Marcus Rashford.
With the win, the Blaugrana maintain their one-point lead over Real Madrid at the top of the La Liga table. The Catalans also secured their bye to the Round of 16 of the UEFA Champions League with a 4-1 win over FC Copenhagen last week.
Barca beat Guadalajara and Racing Santander to book their spot in the Copa Del Rey quarterfinals.
Albacete, meanwhile, qualified for the last eight of the competition thanks to a Herculean 3-2 win over Real Madrid on Jan. 14, with Jefte Betancor scoring a dramatic winner in the 94th minute.
The win over Madrid has seemingly given Albacete's season a jolt, as they've won their last three consecutive league games since. They currently sit in 12th place in the Segunda Division, with nine wins from 24 games.

Hansi Flick's side was dealt another injury blow this week, as Raphinha has been ruled out of the trip to Albacete with a right leg issue.
Marcus Rashford is expected to take his place in the starting lineup. He should be joined by Lamine Yamal and Ferran Torres in attack, with Dani Olmo filling the No. 10 position.
Eric Garcia and Marc Casado could be deployed in midfield, giving Frenkie De Jong a rest, while Joao Cancelo could get his first start since returning to Barca on loan if Flick decides to give Jules Koundé a day off.
FC Barcelona predicted lineup (4-2-3-1): Joan Garcia (GK) – Joao Cancelo, Pau Cubarsi, Gerard Martin, Alejandro Balde – Eric Garcia, Marc Casado – Lamine Yamal, Dani Olmo, Marcus Rashford – Ferran Torres.
