The players of the Barcelona exercised this Tuesday in the morning for the last time before measuring , this Wednesday, to the Athletic of Madrid in the fifth day of the League Santander 2016-17. The ones of Luis Enrique had party this Monday after the goleada of the weekend against the Leganés, that superimposed to the "licking" lumbered with days before to the Celtic of Glasgow (7-0) in Champions League.
And it is that the culés find now in a state of impressive form, and wish to take advantage of it to erase of the map to the Athletic of the "Cholo" Simeone, attaining three points more than help him to approach to the leadership that at present has the Real Madrid.
This Tuesday, trained without problems all the players of the staff of the first team, in an intense session that was opened to the media during the first fifteen minutes to the media in the Ciutat Esportiva of Sant Joan Despí.
Nili Perdomo Was the only player of the Barça B that trained to the orders of Luis Enrique, and now the team already is smart to receive from the 22.00 hours (Spanish hour) of the Wednesday to the colchoneros. The trainer culé will not give the list of summoned until the Wednesday in the morning, as it is used to to be usual, and Aleix Vidal could chain his third consecutive absence.
Regarding the possible alignment of the Barcelona on the eve of the meeting, foresees that Luis Enrique take out to his best men, with Ter Stegen in the goal, Busquets, Iniesta and Rakitic in the centre of the field and the "MSN" up. In defence, the main doubt is if it will play Mascherano or Umtiti.
