Calendar of FC Barcelona

LaLiga Santander has gone in in his last stretch and in these instances, four teams still have options to carry the title, reason by which each one of the four days that subtract are some true finals. The FC Barcelona receives in the Camp Nou this Saturday, from the 16:15 hours, to the Athletic of Madrid in the corresponding crash to the day 35 of the domestic competition, a party that can begin to define the tournament.

The Atleti returns to the feudo Barcelona like leader of the classification, only with two points of advantage on the Real Madrid and Barça (76 vs. 74), by what to both teams only costs him the victory. In the case of the group directed by Ronald Koeman, the requirement is maximum. To add some new three points, would be surpassing to the ones of the 'Cholo' Simeone and positioning as the new leaders of LaLiga, waiting for what do the Real Madrid the Sunday in front of the Seville.

It is a party of double edge, in which all what was not a victory, would be complicating the options to carry the title for the culés, that return to the Camp Nou after the suffered victory in front of the Valency in Mestalla the past weekend. The players, however, are very motivated in the last stretch of the season and go to do all what was in his hands to consummate the so longed for doublet that all the barcelonismo expects.

They are two very experienced trainers that have LaLiga in his hands and it will be necessary to expect to see how order to his players to avoid the greater quantity of possible errors and carry the result.

At the same time, it will be the duel between Ter Stegen and Jan Oblak, two of the best guardametas of Spain and all Europe that they will have to know impose to help to his team to carry the three points, taking in account, also, the return of Luis Suárez to the Camp Nou for the first time from his exit in the summer of the past year, as well as a new reunion of Antoine Griezmann with his ex team, in which the 'Pincipito' will go back to try do cost the law of the ex.

In definite, is a party that presents like the crash that can have big weight in LaLiga and that, surely, the one who go out 'victorious' will be giving a hit on the table in the fight by the title. The last antecedent, however, does not give a lot of hopes to the culés, that fell defeated in Wanda Metropolitan, in November, by the minimum after a monumental error in the defence and a bad exit of Ter Stegen.

Koeman Will not reserve at all

The FC Barcelona has recovered to all his effective, to exception of Ansu Fati and Philippe Coutinho, and Ronald Koeman will have the opportunity to take out the best that has in his changing room to go to by the result. The Dutch is conscious that has the opportunity to step very big with his Barça and will not leave to lose the opportunity. It will be, besides, an ideal occasion to show that the Barcelona group does not hide in front of the adversities neither in the important moments.

The doubts of Simeone

In the edict of the Athletic of Madrid still there are several doubts of face to the duel in front of the Barça. The 'Cholo' Simeone is attentive to the evolution of José María Giménez and of Renan Lodi, of which does not know if they will arrive to the Camp Nou. In such a case, the Argentinian would opt by Felipe accompanying to Savic and by Mario Beautiful in the left-handed side.
