Henry picked up a knee knock in Barca's emphatic 6-2 win over Real Madrid on Saturday, and according to Marca, the injury will keep him out of Wednesday's encounter.

The news will be a blow for Barca coach Josep Guardiola, who earlier announced that the 31-year-old's injury won't prevent him from playing at Stamford Bridge.

The French international will be flying with the rest of the Blaugrana team to London, in case further tests show any exceptional recovery.

Barcelona drew the first leg 0-0 against a resilient Chelsea side at Nou Camp last week.

Henry is having a brilliant campaign with Barcelona, as he scored 25 goals in all competitions so far in the season, including a brace against Real on Saturday.
