For this, the ones of Xavi Hernández will have to do a month of perfect March, literally, and will be many the 'stones' on the way that they will have to surpass. In spite of the irregularity that has showed the team in the end of the month of February, is moment so that the team of a step at the front and definite.

There is those who think that Dembélé could arrive to time, but there is not security in this regard. Everything seems to indicate to that so much he like Pedri González will go back to be to 100% a week afterwards, when they receive to a Real Madrid that the next weekend will receive to the Espanyol (14h), but that will be conditioned by the turn of the eighth of final of the Champions League, the following Tuesday in Santiago Bernabéu.
