Big blow for FC Barcelona. Raphinha has been ruled out for tonight's match against Real Sociedad.

Raphinha will miss tonight's clash on matchday 20 of La Liga—a game FC Barcelona is set to play against Real Sociedad. The club announced he is sidelined as a precaution after taking a knock to his right thigh.

The Brazilian winger was in top form, having netted two braces in his last two starts in the Spanish Super Cup. "First team player Raphinha is ruled out for the match against Real Sociedad as a precaution due to a knock to the right thigh," Barça confirmed this Sunday.
