Javier Mascherano has overcome a thigh injury ahead of Barcelona's match Saturday.
Manager Luis Enrique confirmed that the Argentine will be available when Barcelona hosts Real Sociedad following a week on the sidelines.
Mascherano suffered the injury during Barcelona's 4-0 win against Real Madrid, forcing him to miss the team's Champions League victory over Roma.
His role in Saturday's match has yet to be determined, though Enrique may elect to take a cautious approach and begin the match with Mascherano on the bench
