Calendar of FC Barcelona

Each party of the FC Barcelona has turned into a final and is one 'hard' reality because the Barcelona play his tranquility each weekend. Suffer has turned into a routine and the irregularity has become the mark of the house, although the good feelings have kept and the game of the culés has improved. This Sunday, in front of the Valency in Mestalla (from the 16:15 hours, in Spain) the culés go back to live a true final to follow alive in the domestic championship.

The Barça has to begin to encarrilar consecutive victories urgently in LaLiga if it wants to litigate to the end by the domestic championship. The Barcelona, even under the orders of Xavi Hernández, have been unable to accumulate three consecutive triumphs from April of the past year and the situation, if it does not finish to control right now, can be more worrisome and 'lethal' in the aspirations of the culés. They come of two frustrantes ties (against Espanyol and Napoli), but with the intention to go back to step strong.

For this it is necessary to surpass to Valencia and from the Barça know that this is not a simple task, although in the party of the first turn lived a relatively comfortable party. Nevertheless, trust would be a complete error, especially because the group directed by José Bordalás has the firm intention to give a hit on the table and direct his fight by the European places of LaLiga, after a period in which they have been quite irregular.

The group 'ché', in fact, sum six parties without being able to win in LaLiga. The last triumph arrived on 20 December, against the Raise in the Ciutat of València with a contested 3-4 in favour of the ones of Bordalás. Since, they have accumulated four defeats (front the Alavés, the past weekend, and before against the Athletic, Real Madrid and Espanyol), in addition to two ties with the Seville and Real Sociedad. They have achieved, therefore, two points of 18 possible from the past month of December.

The Barça, by the contrary, has gone in ascending way, but without giving the definite hit on the table that turn them into a reliable and able team to say present in the career by LaLiga. The ones of Xavi have improved exponencialmente his game, but follow sinning for committing too many errors and leave space so that the rivals do party in the area of Marc-André ter Stegen. This yes, the Barcelona do not know the defeat in the domestic championship from the past 4 December, when they fell in front of the Real Betis in the Camp Nou (0-1).

Since, they have added four ties (Osasuna, Seville, Granada and Espanyol) and four triumphs (Elche, Mallorca, Alavés and Athletic of Madrid). In all this time, although the team culé has suffered in numerous clashes, has noticed the mejoría of the team and the intervention of Xavi in the style of the Barcelona, although it remains a long way to improve.

Marked party by the drops

The FC Barceloba visit Mestalla with a few drops, by injuries and also by sanction. They are still in the infirmary Ansu Fati, Sergi Roberto, Memphis Depay, Samuel Umtiti, Alejandro Balde and Clément Lenglet.

Although it was not present in the crash in front of the Napoli by the Europe League, the charrúa has recovered to time of his one overloads in the sóleo of his left leg that suffered in the split suspender belt in front of the Espanyol. Neither they will be, by sanction, Gerard Hammered or Dani Alves.
