Calendar of FC Barcelona

Confront to a recently risen never is easy task. True is that the three teams that rise of Second Division split, on the paper, as 'cenicientas' when they arrive to LaLiga Santander but, to these heights of the film, somebody believes the tale? The recently risen always comport important dangers, confront to the one who confront .

In the first place it is necessary to add the factor of the ignorance. The Real Valladolid rose to First Division the past season, reason by which the FC Barcelona has not confronted to the team of Sergio González. This is a big disadvantage, since it always is complicated study to a team with which have not confronted you in long and whose arms desconoces.

The second to take into account is the factor field. The Real Valladolid touched the glory does some months with his return to the category of gold of the national football and will dress with his best galas. The stadium José Zorrilla will be a pot to pressure and the FC Barcelona will have to face up so much to some fans delivered as to a recently planted lawn that will be in doubtful conditions.

This Saturday 25 August, from the 22:15 (peninsular schedule) desvelarán all the incógnitas of a party that has to be taken very seriously by the FC Barcelona. First test out of house for the group of Ernesto Valverde that already saw against the Alavés that each point has to be worked to the maximum in front of rivals that will not put the at all easy things.

The technician extremeño has to his disposal the vertebral column of the staff practically to the complete and the doubts in the alignment are quite few. Eleven of gala for the première of the Barcelona like visitors, although no descarta that the Txingurri can include some novelty in the team betting by the titularity of Arturo Vidal to strengthen the centre of the field.

If finally the Chilean does not go in in the team, expects that the alignment was the formed by Ter Stegen in the goal, a defence with Sergi Roberto, Samuel Umtiti, Gerard Hammered and Jordi Alba; a centre of the field with Sergio Busquets, Ivan Rakitic and Philippe Coutinho; and a forward with Leo Messi, Luis Suárez and Ousmane Dembélé, that would be the sacrificed if finally Vidal premières like titling.

The Barça goes warned

The FC Barcelona will not have to despistarse in a hostile terrain as it is the Pucela. The Valladolid arrives with win to show that his return to first is not casualidad and will pose a defensive wall in which the creative men of the Barcelona team will have to take out to relucir his wit and his quality to drill it.

So hostile is José Zorrilla that the last precedent of the Barcelona in terrain vallisoletano contabiliza with defeat. It was in the season 2013-14, in the second turn, and the FC Barcelona of the 'Tata' Martino fell by 1-0 with a so much of Fausto Rossi. In fact, the four captains of the current staff -Leo Messi, Sergio Busquets, Gerard Hammered and Sergi Roberto- participated actively in this defeat.

In total, the balance of the Barça in the Pucela is of 21 victories, 10 ties and 14 defeats. Data that leave clear that is not a simple stage neither neither an affordable rival, in spite of being a recently risen. The statistics does not deceive and, especially, the players that were present in this defeat have to alert to the rest of the complicated that it is José Zorrilla.

The arms of the Real Valladolid

The Real Valladolid finish to go up to First Division but has achieved to keep, in general lines, the block of the past campaign and reinforce the team with interesting players. Special attention deserves Keko, right-handed extreme, that is remembered in the Camp Nou by one memorable performance with the Eibar in which it carried crazy to the Barcelona defence.

Another of the mainstays to take into account in the pucelanos is the figure of Enes Ünal, that very probably was the most advanced man in the eleven. The past season alternated the Villarreal with the Raise in a campaign of adaptation to LaLiga, but this has to be the one of his consecration. Sometimes a genius, sometimes a disaster, but the Turkish never leaves indifferent.

In the goal also stand out the presence of Jordi Masip, the one who went goalkeeper of the FC Barcelona and that will confront to the Barcelona group with the aim of not to turn into a victim more than Leo Messi, the one who has not marked him never. The Valladolid is a wolf with skin of lamb and the ones of Ernesto Valverde already are warned.
