BARCELONA, Spain -- Lionel Messis hamstring injury has hurt more than just a muscle in the Argentines right leg, and its still smarting. Anthony Barr Jersey . The Barcelona forward scored 60 goals in all competitions this season, enough to ensure the team wins the Spanish league title yet again. But with Messi struggling to recover from the injury he picked up in the Champions League quarterfinals in April, Barcelona was eliminated from that competition in the semifinals. And last weekend, Messi re-aggravated the injury and is now likely to miss the last three games of the Spanish season. "Hes the No. 1, perhaps the best in history," Barcelona defender Jordi Alba said Tuesday before stating what seems to be the obvious. "On many occasions, we depend on him." The 25-year-old Messi won his fourth straight player of the year award this season, and has scored an amazing 133 goals over the last two campaigns. But without the Argentine on the field, Barcelona is just not the same team that has won two of the last four Champions League titles. Most teams would consider the Spanish league title a resounding triumph, but Messi and his Barcelona teammates expect more after winning 14 of a possible 19 trophies in recent years. "We set the bar so high that now you win the league its like you havent won anything," Barcelona midfielder Xavi Hernandez said Wednesday. "We had won so much and yet we still have to value (this title). There is a lot of pressure. If you dont win the Champions League its like you havent won anything." This "Messi-dependence" surely is a disease any other club in the world would love to contract. But with Messi hurt against Bayern Munich in the Champions League semifinals, Barcelona could not find the sure scoring threat it needed. It even seemed that Barcelona didnt believe it could win without him. And it didnt, losing 3-0 in the second leg after the 4-0 rout in the first. Unless he returns for Barcelonas season finale against Malaga on the first weekend in June, Messi will end this season with a league-leading 46 goals -- four short of his own record of 50 from last season. He also scored eight more in the Champions League, four in the Copa del Rey, and two in the Spanish Super Cup. Last season, Messi scored 73 goals to break the previous European club record of 67 goals set by Bayern Munich striker Gerd Mueller in 1972-73. Even so, the Argentina star was reduced to tears when Barcelona somehow lost to Chelsea in the Champions League semifinals. This year, Barcelona was obliterated by Bayern, and that historic 7-0 scoreline makes a big difference for a team which for the first time in five years wont start next season as the favourite in Europes top-tier competition. Not, that is, unless it makes some major changes to its aging squad. Barcelona coach Tito Vilanova insists he will maintain the teams core and that its humbling Champions League exit wont change his plans for the off-season. Yet Barcelona has players that may not be physically able to execute the pressing defence that underlies its famed ball-control and passing game. Captain Carles Puyol is 35 and Eric Abidal, whose contract is up in June, is 33 and only recently returned from a liver transplant. Fellow defenders Dani Alves will be 30 and Javier Mascherano 29 by the start of next season, while the injury-prone Adriano is 28. Midfielder Xavi Hernandez, the heart of Barcelonas passing attack, is 33, striker David Villa is 31, and midfielder Andres Iniesta recently turned 29. "A season when you win the league is always a good one," Vilanova said, looking on the bright side before turning to the seasons big disappointment. "We regret not being able to compete better in the semifinals of the Champions League. Next season will be even more difficult, but well try to be there again." Danielle Hunter Jersey .

All the games are live on Sky Sports 3 HD, with coverage underway from 2pm.Salford v Widnes (2.30pm)Salford are without utility back Niall Evalds through suspension so Josh Jones is set to switch from the second row to centre to plug the gap. Coach Ian Watson has added Jake Bibby and Jordan Walne to the team that lost at St Helens. Salford have so far clawed back just two of the six points they were docked for breaching the salary cap but vice-captain Michael Dobson says they remain confident they can climb out of the bottom four at the expense of Widnes, who are in freefall after losing their last seven matches.That makes them very dangerous, Dobson said. It makes it a must-win for them and for us every game is a must-win if we want to get into the eight.Were only six points off eighth spot and thats Widnes so, if we can knock them off this week, its down to four so its not out of the equation. Michael Dobson and Joe Mellor say theyre expecting an entertaining game when Salford take on Widnes in the first game of Magic Weekend Widnes are boosted by the return of skipper Kevin Brown, a Magic Weekend ever-present who scored a hat-trick of tries in last years win over the Red Devils at St James Park and has missed the last three games with an ankle injury. Centre Chris Bridge is also back after recovering from a calf strain.The Vikings Joe Mellor is hoping the potential return of Kevin Brown, who has missed five of those seven losses, can help the one-time leaders stop the rot.Because we started the season so well, its hard to take, but were training hard and putting in good performances without getting results, Mellor said.

Theyve really brought it back round so its going to be a tough encounter. Castlefords Michael Shenton pays tribute to Tigers playmaker Luke Gale as he and Warringtons Chris Hill look ahead to the game Castleford are boosted by the availability of stand-off Ben Roberts, who has been on the sidelines for 10 weeks with a foot injury, while utility back Ryan Hampshire and centre or second rower Jake Webster are also back in contention.

Weve been adapting each week.After what was a really disappointing performance against Cas, youve got to look at what we do and look at what are are trying to achieve and re-evaluate those things, which is always difficult mid-season.To beat Wigan would be a boost for us.Wigan captain Sean OLoughlin fully expects the fallen champions to emerge from their slump but is hoping it is not at the expense of his side. Wigan captain Sean OLoughlin and Leeds captain Danny McGuire are expecting a tough game and a special atmosphere Obviously theyve not been going well but were coming off the back of two Super League losses as well so neither of us are in the best form, OLoughlin said. Both teams are desperate for a win.Theyre wounded at the minute but you only have to look at the quality theyve still got in their side. I dont think theyre too far away and, when they do click, they can kick on for the season. We dont want to be the team that kick-starts it for them.Despite back-to-back defeats, Wigan remain within touching distance of the leaders in a congested top half of the table in which two points separate the top six.Nobody has gripped it yet, OLoughlin said. We still feel its wide open for the top spot.Leeds: Zak Hardaker, Kallum Watkins, Danny McGuire, Rob Burrow, Keith Galloway, Beau Falloon, Adam Cuthbertson, Jamie Jones-Buchanan, Brett Delaney, Brad Singleton, Mitch Garbutt, Jimmy Keinhorst, Mitch Achurch, Anthony Mullally, Josh Walters, Ash Handley, Ashton Golding, Jordan Lilley, Brett Ferres.Wigan: John Bateman, Greg Burke, Josh Charnley, Dom Crosby, Ben Flower, Oliver Gildart, Willie Isa, Dom Manfredi, Lee Mossop, Sean OLoughlin, Sam Powell, Dan Sarginson, Matty Smith, Ryan Sutton, Taulima Tautai, Lewis Tierney, Joel Tomkins, Sam Tomkins, George Williams.Watch the Magic Weekend  live on Sky Sports 3 HD and Sky Sports 1 HD. Or watch the game without a contract for £6.99 on NOW TV.  Also See: When is Magic Weekend on Sky?
