Barcelona midfielder Andres Iniesta is poised to return from a four-match lay-off in this week's UEFA Champions League encounter with Benfica. Iniesta has been named in the travelling party for Tuesday's Group G match in Lisbon after recovering from a muscle injury suffered on international duty with Spain. There were also places for Carles Puyol and Adriano in the 21-man squad after recovering from knee and muscular injuries respectively. Thiago Alcantara was the most notable absentee from Tito Vilanova's squad, with the midfielder awaiting the results of scans on a knee ligament injury he picked up in their 3-2 win at Sevilla on Saturday.
