Barcelona have confirmed Lionel Messi sat out training due to a thigh problem - but he is expected to be available against Osasuna.
The Argentina forward was the only big name absent from the session as compatriot Gabriel Milito returned to training three weeks after suffering an injury in the Copa Del Rey win over Ceuta.
The defender trained separately from the rest of the squad, but Messi remained in the treatment room as medical staff attended to what Barca describe as "a minor strain".
The 23-year-old missed two matches earlier in the season due to an ankle injury after being caught late by Tomas Ujfalusi towards the end of the 2-1 win away to Atletico Madrid on September 19.
Barca will train again tomorrow morning before travelling to Pamplona for the game.
