BARÇA, FORCED TO WIN IN GRANADA
Barça, looking for a key victory before the FIFA date
FC Barcelona returns to Los Cármenes with the intention of seeking a victory that will 'return' them to second place in LaLiga. They will try with a large number of casualties, but with the intention of continuing to be the only unbeaten team in Spain
The second stop of selections of the season is just around the corner and the FC Barcelona wants to leave with the tasks done, especially after the victories of the Real Madrid and the Girona that have left him in the third position of LaLiga. They visit this Sunday, from the 21:00 hours (9:00 PM CEST) to a Granada in places of descents and that knows very very what is to give war to the blaugrana.
The ones of Xavi Hernández, with four drops in his announcement, will look for to follow his series of imbatibilidad in what it goes of season. They have played ten parties, eight in LaLiga and two in Champions League, with a bagaje of eight victories and two ties. They are the only team of the five big Leagues of Europe that still does not know the defeat and will try to keep the statistics a week more, especially by the requirements in the classification.
The Barça, with drops and obligations
However, it can be a party 'cheat' if the Barça neglects . It does not be necessary to overlook that the quipo will visit Andalucia with four drops of a lot of weight that could finish happening bill. The most sensitive are the ones of Robert Lewandowski and Rpahinha, those who himself were present in the last party of League. The trainer egarense only will have three players in his attack and alternative of the quarry, by what the goal, probably, go out expensive.
In front will have to a Granada that does not have despegado in his return to First Division and that accumulates five defeats, two ties and a victory in eight parties. Only they were able to impose in front of the RCD Mallorca (3-2) and, since, added three falls followed and the two ties. They come to sign the tables in front of the Almería, in a party 'crazy' in which they traced back a 3-0 in the second half. Luis Suárez had done with the 'hat-trick' in the first part, but in the resumption appeared Bryan, Sánchez and Uzuni to equalise. It was a very positive reaction of the ones of Paco López.
Paco López, danger for the Barça
Speaking of the trainer, is worth it to remember that it adds three consecutive parties without knowing the defeat in front of the Barça when it has been local. With the Raise, after having been goleado by 0-5, chained a seguidilla of parties very important without losing: 2-1 in the duel of the Glass of the King 2018/19, a 3-1 in LaLiga and the very remembered 3-3 in full pandemia for the jorrnada 36 of the domestic championship.
It is a simple statistical that is to break , but the true is that the Barcelona group will not be able to trust only because the Granada was in positions of descent. Already it recognised it Xavi in press conference, ensuring that "have a difficult rival, is the most physical, is an intense team, the one who hurts with transitions, has big defensive potential, Paco López is an offensive trainer... We will try to control his direct football". It will be impossible that step in false.
