The fourth most valuable sports club in the world is in fifth position after 12 rounds. The 26-time champion and 30-time Spanish Cup winner have 20 points, which is six less than the top three, but they have also played less games than Real Madrid. If the Catalans closed November with a victory over Osasuna (4:0), then Barcelona entered December with a defeat from Cadiz (1:2), then they were defeated by Levante (1:0) and Real Sociedad (2:1). The performance indicators of the team, which hit the opponent’s goal 23 times, look unusual. This is the second league result after Real Sociedad. Traditionally, the vice-champion’s scorers race is headed by Lionel Messi, but so far the Argentine has a modest five goals scored. Blaugranas performed confidently in the Champions League and only the defeat in the last round by Juventus (0:3) sent them to the second position, which, however, allowed them to go further to the playoffs, where the French champion is already waiting for the team Paris Saint-Germain. Dembele, Pique, Roberto and Fati, who has a knee injury, will not be able to enter the pitch today.
After victories in 2018 and 2019 Lions fell to 6th place. And in this rally it started not in the best way: elimination from the qualification of the Europa League from the Scottish Rangers, defeat in October in the domestic arena from Sivasspor and Alanyaspor. But it is not for nothing that Fatih Terim is considered the best coach of his country. He corrected the situation quite confidently. Since the end of October the Istanbul grand has taken 5 victories, in 6 Super League matches and only with Kayserispor lost points, conceding a return ball from an opponent playing in the minority. But after that, the blood-golds took 2 major crushing victories in the championship: having 4:0 with Rizespor, 3:0 with Khatayspor. Mbaye Diagnier scored in these games and put 5 goals in the last 3 meetings. Prior to that, the Senegalese scored only Neftchi in the Europa League.
