Match Preview
On Wednesday, Barca will move another step closer to their historic feat should they win against 6th placed Villarreal. According to AS, the Yellow Submarines, have promised to give La Liga’s new champions a befitting guard of honor with Real Madrid failing to observe the tradition. This will not be the first time Villarreal have taken the initiative as they did so back in 2015 when Barcelona returned with the Club World Cup trophy.
The Valencian Community-based side is currently chasing a Europa League spot but would have to go an extra mile if they indeed aim to soil their hosts’ incredible run. Aside the home advantage for Barcelona, they also remain unbeaten in the last 19 games across all competitions against Javier Calleja’s team. As a result, the Submarine’s unimpressive away record in this season’s league does not bid well for them going into the encounter.
On the bright side, their recent form is something to go by as they’ve managed to win three and have drawn one of their last four league games. They enter the midweek fixture on the back of a narrow 1-0 victory over Valencia.
