Mladen Krstajić and Christian Pander are injury doubts for FC Schalke 04 ahead of their UEFA Champions League quarter-final return leg at FC Barcelona on Wednesday.
 
Late decision
Both players were unable to take a full part in Schalke's training session on Monday but will be making the trip to Spain. Central defender Krstajić is suffering from a knee problem while left-back Pander has a groin injury. The club will leave it as late as possible to decide whether either will start in Spain. Fellow defender Heiko Westermann also missed training after sustaining a knock to his left ankle during Saturday's Bundesliga victory against FC Hansa Rostock. However, it is thought he will start at Camp Nou where Schalke need to overturn a 1-0 deficit to reach the semi-finals of the UEFA Champions League.
