Match forecast
Mauricio Pellegrino's men won 2-1 at the Nou Camp earlier this season, a result that should give Luis Enrique enough reason not to underestimate their opponents. And now that they are in the final of the Copa del Rey, they would want to use this match to prove a point against the Catalan outfit. Another factor that proves the difficultly level of this match is the fact that Barcelona have drawn three of their last five away games in the league by 1-1 scorelines. This could end up into another draw or a slim win for the hosts.
