The Brazil international is being plagued by a thigh injury and looks set to miss Tuesday's Primera Division encounter due to the knock.Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola will have to reshuffle his back line again for Tuesday's Liga match at home against Getafe as the Catalans will possibly have to make do without the services of Dani Alves due to injury.The Brazil international picked up a knock in Barca's 4-1 league win over Zaragoza on Saturday and was forced to leave the pitch after 68 minutes of play.Dani Alves underwent a number of tests on Sunday to determine the extent of his injury, and Barcelona have now confirmed on their official website that the right-back has pulled a muscle in his left thigh.It is not yet exactly known how long the former Sevilla star will be out of action, but it appears unlikely that he will be match fit in time for the game against Getafe at Camp Nou.The defender is likely to be replaced by Martin Montoya on Tuesday as the youngster also came in as a substitute in his place against Zaragoza at the weekend.
