Albacete

The team is remembered for good results at the end of the last and the beginning of this century. On the other hand, this decade began with having to fight in the third division of the country. Fortunately, they did not get stuck there, but in Segundo it is a middle peasant who took tenth place in the spring of last year – and this was progress. Now there was not a zero threat of relegation, but at the moment the football players are brave and have won the third consecutive match in the championship.

But the best thing is to go for a walk in a cup. There, after the passage of Deportivo San Fernandez and Leganés, they already pleasantly surprised, coping with Celta (on penalties after 2:2). Well, in January there was a really loud sensation when an outsider knocked out Real Madrid with three goals against Lunin!

Barcelona

The club called Flick in the summer of the year before last. At that time, the giants released a season without trophies at all and continued to experience problems with finances, due to which their transfer activity was restricted. Nothing, Hansi, who had never worked in Spain before, won all the domestic trophies at the first attempt, constantly beating Real.

Now the autumn El Clasico was lost, but still it is possible to keep the rival from the capital behind. True, due to the January misfire with Real Sociedad, the advantage was seriously reduced. However, they managed to beat the Madrid team in the Super Cup, releasing Xabi Alonso, and in the Champions League, the Catalans had no significant problems with reaching the playoffs – they will miss the first round there, relieving themselves of the calendar.

Statistics of personal meetings

Barcelona won all six of their last matches. True, since 2005, the clubs have never played against each other.

Forecast

Bookmakers unconditionally believe in the victory of the guests. But they need to save strength for the fight in the Primera, so we expect a final result from this meeting in the form of a total of less than 4.0 goals (coefficient – 1.65 according to the BC betking line).
