Calendar of FC Barcelona

The FC Barcelona-Athletic of Madrid of this Saturday could decide LaLiga for well or for bad. A victory of the colchoneros would leave to the culés without options, since would move them away to five points. On the other hand, a Barcelona triumph would allow to the ones of Ronald Koeman put leaders and who know if depend on yes same to win the title. The Catalans would depend then that the Real Madrid 'punctured' against the Seville the Sunday.

It was as it was, the reality is that it is practically a 'final' so much for ones as for others. By this reason, everything is looking with lupa and in the crash there will be a very special duel and loaded of morbo between a player of the Atleti and another of the Barça. It treats of Luis Suárez and of Antoine Griezmann​, that reencontrarán with his ex teams with the mission to mark and decant the victory to his current clubs.

It is necessary to remember that the charrúa left the group barcelonista the summer happened of form almost forced. Josep Maria Bartomeu taught him the door and Ronald Koeman left him clear that did not have he, by what decided mudarse to the capital of Spain. By his part, the 'Principito' carries in the City Condal from the 2019, when it decided to put an end to his stage in Wanda Metropolitan to give a jump in his career.

However, for Suárez has been much easier to win the affection of his current fans, since it is doing a remarkable first campaign there. The Uruguayan adds already 19 so many in 29 parties of League, where is being decisive so that the colchoneros are in the highest of the classification. To 'Grizzy' cost him more adapt to the Barcelona, but after a first season something disappointing at last seems to be approaching to his best version.

This course the French adds a total of 19 so many and 12 assistances, with 12 targets and 7 passes of goal in League. His campaign is being more than remarkable and the 2021 in particular is being excellent. It has marked 9 goals in League, 3 in Glass of Rey and other two in the Supercopa of Spain in what it goes of year. There is not doubt that his game and his numbers have given a jump and that surely arrives to this 'final' against his ex in the best moment since it plays in the Camp Nou.

Griezmann Arrives more in shape that Suárez

Right now, Griezmann is in much better forms that Suárez, that was a pair of weeks 'KO' and that did not reappear until does something more than a week and average. In fact, the '9' no 'wet' from 21 March in front of the Alavés. The Uruguayan, still like this, will be dangerous and Gerard Hammered or Clément Lenglet, that know him to spare, will have to be very attentive to him. By his part, the one of Macon will look for to leave without League to his to approach the title to Can Barça.
