The FC Barcelona initiated does a week the defence of the title of LaLiga with victory, although as it was to expect, the Sportive Alavés did him sweat to attain the three points. That that 'there is not small rival' every time is truer, and although it can have some parties that resolve by the fast road, well would do the culés of no fiarse of any opponent by accessible that seem.
This Saturday produces the first exit of the season, and the visit will be to a recently risen Valladolid. Although the group blanquivioleta appears like a favourable victim for the Barcelona, there will be any ease in José Zorrilla, and more taking into account that the last time that were there, the Catalans went back with defeat.
The group that then directed the Tata Martino landed in full fight by the leadership with the Real Madrid and the Athletic, and finish adding a painful trip against the antepenultimate classified. Gerard Hammered, Sergio Busquets and Leo Messi has very cool that memory, because beside Sergi Roberto -that it was acting- are the only that are still in the changing room. The nefasta performance closed with a 1-0 in Pucela and the championship lost shortly after in the Camp Nou, after a controversial tie against the rojiblancos that supposed a trophy for the ones of the Cholo Simeone.
Historically also it is clear the warning, because of the 42 occasions that have crossed in territory vallisoletano, the Barça only has won 20. In 10 of these meetings attained to save a point, but in 12 occasions the triumph remained home, something that the men of Ernesto Valverde do not want to allow of any of the ways.
The Barça marks a plenary until Mestalla like aim
After having begun the campaign with good foot, the Barça pretends now mark an aim on a long-term basis, that is to arrive to Mestalla with a plenary of victories. Valencia is an opponent that contests Champions and will be one of the hardest in the championship of the regularity, by what to cover in front of a possible trip, before does not allow neither a slip.
Seen the seen, does not go to be easy, although they give by forced the duels against Alavés, Valladolid, Huesca or Girona. Besides, it will touch to travel to Anoeta and Butarque, and also receive to the Athletic of Bilbao. There is not any small rival, and if they want to finish the year in the high of the classification, can not forgive neither a party.
