The FC Barcelona is to so alone six points to reach mathematically the title of League. The Sportive Alavés will be the opponent of this Tuesday and, in case of victory, can have alirón the Wednesday if the Athletic loses in front of Valencia

Ask that the Champions League was not in the mind of the footballers of the FC Barcelona is to ask him pears to the elm. At the beginning of April, the Barcelona team plays it to him in front of the fearsome Liverpool of Jurgen Klopp, in an eliminatory in which the barcelonismo carries years dreaming. But before, it touches to sentence LaLiga Santander.

The team of Ernesto Valverde depends on if same to leave the mathematically sentenced championship before confronting to the 'reds' to double party. This Tuesday will follow the way to the title -to fault of six points to win it of mathematical form- and the rival will be the Sportive Alavés, that expects to win to the culés in Mendizorroza to follow dreaming with Europe.

The FC Barcelona has in his hand the possibility to sing the alirón this same Wednesday. If the Barcelona win in Vitoria and the Athletic of Madrid loses in Wanda Metropolitan against Valencia a day afterwards, the Barça will be able to celebrate the title of League without need to play the weekend against the Raise in the Camp Nou.

It is thus that, from the 21:30, the culés will have to forget of the Liverpool as they already did against the Real Sociedad and centre exclusively in the party against the Alavés. To exception of Ivan Rakitic, that will remain in Barcelona to rest, Ernesto Valverde has carried to the rest of 'heavy weights' to Mendizorroza.

Of face to the party against the Basques, the 'Txingurri' has announced that poses several changes in the alignment. The Croat will rest sure, but any of the members of the eleven of gala will remain in the bench with almost total security. The fact that there are three key parties in hardly nine days does that the technician extremeño need dosificar to the players with more minutes in his legs.

The FC Barcelona will measure to the Alavés with a wide mattress of nine points with regard to the Athletic of Madrid, but with the mentality that it is necessary to take out points now, since more forward will arrive the parties against the Liverpool and maybe all was focalizado in this longed for eliminatory. The culés do not want to leave escape the opportunity of entonar the alirón this same week.

The Alavés, of more to less

The Sportive Alavés consecrated from the beginning of the season like one of the big disclosures of LaLiga Santander. Nevertheless, in the last weeks has punctured them the globe and the team has gone of more to less. In spite of this, the Basques still dream with going back to Europe, an aim that have near if they obtain good results until final of course.

Abelardo, technician of the team vitoriano, will have three important drops of face to the visit of the FC Barcelona: Guillermo Maripán, Takashi Inui and Burgui. However, the Alavés has sufficient arms as to hurt to the Barça. Footballers like Borja Clave, Jony or Rolán, are a serious threat, especially when they find spaces. It will be necessary to have concentration to detain them.

The own Abelardo has clear that his team has to go out relaxed to take out something positive of the duel. "We have to go out without pressure; have a lot that win and little that lose, but have to litigate, covering his desmarques without leaving them think", commented, remembering that, in spite of having materialised the permanence, "are litigating for playing a European competition next year".
