The forward was dismissed during the weekend clash against Sevilla and will now be suspended for two games - firstly for the trip to Eibar and then for the clash against Los Blancos in the Catalan capital.
Debutant Ronald Araujo was shown a straight red card for a foul on fellow substitute Javier Hernandez - who was clean through on goal - with two minutes to play at the Camp Nou.
Dembele was then dismissed for his excessive protests to referee Antonio Lahoz in the aftermath, reportedly telling the official that he was ‘very bad’.
As outlined, the former Borussia Dortmund forward will now be forced to sit out the highly anticipated clash against Madrid - who are the early league leaders in La Liga.
Also, both the player and the club have been fined.700 € to the club and 600 € to the player.
