FC Barcelona will seek to continue its winning streak when RC Celta visits Montjuïc. Rafa Benítez's men have not 'started', while the Blaugrana are already 'flying'

The FC Barcelona takes action after premièring in the Champions League with an exhibition in front of the Royal Amberes, that finished with a 'manita'. The blaugrana retorted the result that already had signed some days before, in front of the Betis, to confirm that they are in state of grace and that have enchufado to time to begin to litigate by the titles in this season. The aim is to give continuity to the good feelings.

The Real Celtic Club will try to interpose on the way of the ones of Xavi Hernández with his visit to the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Compannys, this Saturday from the 18:30 hours (6:30 PM CEST), in the corresponding party to the sixth day of the domestic championship. The Barça has the opportunity to add his fifth victory followed and go back to the leadership, waiting for what happen in the derbi Madrilenian between Real Madrid and Athletic.

The Barça does not trust of the Celtic

Although the ones of Rafa Benítez have not begun the season of the most hit way and add, only, four of fifteen possible points, is a team that has showed to be complicated, rocky and that does not hide in the big appointments. Only it is necessary to remember the clash between both, that saldó with a victory for the vigueses in Balaídos with a doublet of Gabri Veiga. The things have changed a lot since, but is a proof that it is a team that always gives war.

The blaugrana arrive very unsuspecting to the crash and expect to add a new triumph to the registers. In case to win, in addition to what supposes in the classification, Xavi Hernández would be adding his triumph number 50 in LaLiga since it landed, in November of 2021, to the Barcelona bench. Up to now, with 69 parties contested, has a balance of 49 victories, ten defeats and ten ties. It can have double celebration in Montjuïc, but this does not mean that the party go to be simple.

Split 'rocky' for both teams

The Celtic has not finished to start and comes of a hard defeat in front of the Mallorca in a clash in which they went clearly upper, but a goal of Muriqi in a played isolated changed the history so that, up to now, the alone Galicians have added a victory in five parties, with a tie and three defeats. They want to begin to scalar positions and know that win to the Barça would be a 'subidón' of confidence very important, although they are conscious that they split with a lot of disadvantage.

It will be a party so that the '9' look for to confine in the area and surpass to the defences, that will be very shut. In this sense, the paper that can have Robert Lewandowski and Iago Sails. The Pole carries three parties followed of League seeing goal, whereas the Spanish has continued being the main offensive reference of the 'celtistas', but still has not seen goal.

Important changes in the Barça of Xavi

Xavi is conscious that win is very important to follow adding confidence and go defining the automatisms of the team, that every time are more evident. However and in front of the big quantity of parties that him avecinan to the blaugrana, is very likely that include rotations in his alignment to give rest to the players that have contested it all, especially after the debut in Champions League.

The egarense already announced that they would have changes and has confirmed the return of Ronald Araújo to the announcement after recovering of the injury in the biceps femoral of the left leg that had suffered in a training to finals of August. Now, only it remains that Pedri González recover and take action, but no expects him until mediated of October, after the stop of selections.
