The previous of the party: FC Barcelona vs Celtic FC

After a week of sessions of training in the prestigious installations of the English Federation, Saint George's Park, the FC Barcelona already is prepared mentally for the first friendly party of the pre-season 2016-17, that will confront him to the Celtic of Glasgow in the Aviva Stadium of Dublin (Ireland), to the 19.00 hours. Luis Enrique will explain for the meeting with 23 players, since it does not foresee that Martín Montoya have minutes when being about to be traspasado to Valencia, whereas it also will be doubtful the presence of Cristian Tello, the one who has all the ballots to leave again yielded to the Fiorentina to the not explaining for Luis Enrique.

The blaugrana will play this first appointment of International Champions Cup still without the thickness of headlines, the majority of international that contested weeks backwards tournaments of big calado like the UEFA Euro 2016 and the Glass Centenarian America. "I struggle", therefore, will have the opportunity to test new things and put in practice the concepts assimilated by his players in Birmingham, since the Celtic of Glasgow neither foresees that it put a lot of efforts in taking out a good result of the meeting, when reserving to the majority of his usual headlines for the phase of classification that gives access to the UEFA Champions League 2016-17.

With all this, Luis Suárez and Lionel Messi will be without place to doubts the big attraction of the fans, being able to form pair of attack or going out one of start and the another from the bench. The two attackers sudamericanos chain a week of trainings -the Uruguayan some days more-, after Messi turned into the big novelty of the list of summoned for the "stage" in England. The Argentinian recortó more than a week his holidays to be present from the beginning in the pre-season, can that enrabietado for having lost a new final with the albiceleste and decided to do that this campaign 2016-17 was one of the best of his career futbolística.

But centring us in the duel against the Celtic of Glasgow, another of the inducements will be to see the debut of Denis Suárez with the T-shirt of the first team of the FC Barcelona, since it is very possible that play of start when being one of the players that more time carries training. The Celtic of Brendan Rodgers could do a big quantity of rotations to give minutes to his less important footballers, although this comport can carry a goleada of the Aviva Stadium. Throwing an ojeada to the last parties, however, the true is that the parties between Barça and Celtic are used to to be quite competitive, at least those that have played in UEFA Champions League.

Obviando The 6-1 -the party of the first "hat-trick" of Neymar with the Barça- of December of 2013, the five previous parties saldaron with victories adjusted by part of the FC Barcelona, or defeats like the one of November of 2012 in Scotland. The three remaining meetings, victory of the Barça 1-0 in 2008, triumph culé 2-1 in November of 2012 and victory also by the minimum (0-1) in October of 2013.

It is likely, therefore, that the Celtic do not put the easy things and go out to plant expensive and try win the party, especially by the pride of a historical club. Finalised the commitment against the Scottish, the following appointments of preparation in the calendar of the pre-season will be in front of the Leicester -champion of the Premier League 2015-16- and in front of the Liverpool, before the Trophy Joan Gamper and the Supercopa of Spain 2016 against the Seville.
