Barcelona hosts Real Sociedad in a game that is more significant to the guests than Blaugrana. Sociedad needs points to stay in the place that will lead to the Europa League. Barca is third, secured a UCL spot, and has no pressure. We just might see them in a bit looser mode. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Barcelona lost to Girona last weekend, even though Xavi’s boys led at the halftime. They would allow three goals in the second 45 minutes for a 4-2 loss, which pushed them down to third place, allowing Girona to jump over the Catalan giants. Counting in the UEFA Champions League, this was the third loss for Blaugrana in the past four events. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
All of these events were\u00a0extremely\u00a0efficient, having at least five goals, with both teams netting.\u00a0Barcelona’s defense\u00a0was highly problematic, allowing at least two goals in each event and showing numerous weaknesses.\u00a0Last year, they had one of the best backlines in Europe,\u00a0which\u00a0became highly unstable during this campaign.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
