If something is showing the present season 2017-18, is that the distractions pay and does not be necessary to despise to any opponent. To the protect of the Camp Nou, the culés are favourite in front of the Athletic of Madrid, although to day of today more by the classification and by the presence of Leo Messi and Luis Suárez on the lawn, and no so much by the feelings showed in the last hurt suspender belt. After the tie harvested against the UD The Palms in Big Canarian, the advantage that had antaño the FC Barcelona regarding the Athletic of Madrid in LaLiga Santander 2017-18 has reduced until the five points, when having chained the group trained by Ernesto Valverde at all less than three ties in the last five days.

If the Barça empata, the advantage of five points will keep and the Barcelona will have stepped more in the achievement of the title, although it will not be able to say neither much less that it was sentenced to fault of more than 30 points for contesting still.

The Camp Nou, a fortín for the Barcelona

By the contrary, a defeat against the Athletic in the Camp Nou would do to jump all the alarms in the barcelonismo, since of this way the FC Barcelona would happen to dominate the classification by only two points of advantage regarding the colchoneros, an advantage ínfima taking into account which have been the differences in the first turn. In the breast of the changing room culé, however, are convinced that they will achieve the victory against the Athletic of Madrid and, with her, will be able to put earth of by half to face with tranquility the last days. After the arbitration of this Thursday in The Palms, besides, can say that the blaugrana are more got angry and motivated to attain a good result.

In spite of everything, Ernesto Valverde will confront this Sunday to a technician to the one who never has achieved to win, the 'Cholo' Simeone, whereas it gives the case that the Argentinian neither has attained to bend never to the Barça in League, with eight defeats and four ties. 1-1 it was the result of the party of the first turn in Wanda Metropolitan, and the Barcelona will play now with the motivation to improve said result to give already a hit irremontable in LaLiga 2017-18.

The best Barça to brake to Griezmann

In the list of summoned for the clash there are few novelties, with the 'Txingurri' adjusting to a script that for the moment has worked him without too many setbacks: the best in each party. Jordi Alba and Hammered will be the main novelties in the eleven, whereas Coutinho has also all the ballots to be headline. In the another edict, Griezmann and Diego Coast will be the main headaches for the goal of Ter Stegen. Especially the French, that accumulates seven goals and an assistance in the two last parties of League, spectacular figures after the 'hat-trick' harvested in the Sánchez Pizjuán in front of the Seville and the 'póker' against the Leganés in Wanda Metropolitan.

Gil Manzano, on the other hand, will be the referee commissioned to give justice on the lawn of the Camp Nou. The referee already has 'antecedents' controversial in the last Barcelona-Athletic that pitó, in the past edition of the Glass of Rey, when it expelled by double cautions to Sergi Roberto and Luis Suárez. It expects that in this occasion the FC Barcelona, to the one who Mateu Lahoz prejudiced enormously in ThePalms , receive a neutral arbitration and that do not turn into an obstacle added to the hour to try win to the colchoneros. And, especially, that no enturbie the show. Already they listen the drums of war. That the balloon throw to film.
