How to get to Barcelona and Almería
Ownership of Gerard Piqué is uncertain as Xavi Hernández recovers two injured central defenders, Eric Garcia and Andreas Christensen. In any case, the Camp Nou will be able to say goodbye to Piqué, who returned to Barcelona in the summer of 2008 after training previously in grassroots football. Since then, ‘Geri’ has won 30 titles with his dream team, including three Champions League titles.
Xavi Hernández’s side, second in the table just one point behind leaders, Real Madrid, want Camp Nou to remain a stronghold in the national competition. He has not conceded a goal so far in the six league games he played there: Rayo Vallecano (0-0), Valladolid (4-0), Elche (3-0), Celta (1-0), Villarreal (3-0) ) and Athletic Club (4-0).
To achieve this, Barcelona will have ‘Pichichi’ Robert Lewandowski, absent on Tuesday in the victory against Viktoria Plzen (4-2) due to back pain. Barcelona’s goal is to add up the six points missing from the World Cup interval to go on the counterattack with a bad taste in the mouth after the terrible disappointment of the Champions League. To do this, in addition to beating Almería this Saturday, they will have to beat Osasuna at home next Tuesday.
At Camp Nou, Almería wants to do what it has never been able to do: score points, because in the seven visits made to Barça – six in the league and one in the Cup – it has not been able to overshadow Barcelona, which always came out on top. .
