Espanyol-Barcelona is a match of the thirty-fourth day of La Liga and is played on Sunday at 9 pm: likely lineups, predictions, TV and streaming.
Winning the championship in the derby. This is the destiny that Xavi’s Barcelona has built for itself, one step away from the arithmetic certainty of winning the Spanish championship. Arithmetic and that’s all, since of doubts there are none now for a while.
A clear path that of the Catalans. That after a start of the season a bit like this, they got into the right gear and now find themselves celebrating. Although then the problems will remain, as Laporta will be forced to make cuts of at least 200million euros. So it’s not all doom and gloom, but at least for a few days it will only be time to celebrate.
There really should be no doubt who will win this match. Although Espanyol dreams of spoiling the party. Or, to put it better, it dreams of scoring points that would be very useful if not fundamental to be able to stay in the race for a salvation that is now only three points away. But which remains in any case very difficult. By now, the Segunda Divison, is really close.
Xavi has no doubts about the lineup and will send the best men on the field. The ones he needs to give the coup de grâce to a truly dominated league. Barcelona may not have the best offense but they do have the best defense, with only 11 goals taken during the year. Another sign for those who want to win: those who can concede the least in the end do
Xavi, it will be his first Spanish championship (Lapresse)
The prediction
Everything is ready for the Barcelona party. Everything now in the fridge to be uncorked. A win, as mentioned, would allow Xavi’s team to win the title. And this one should come without any particular problems. The 2 is almost a must.
