http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 take on Jose Mourinho’s Real Madrid in their next La Liga fixture and find themselves trailing the Capital club by 4 points.
The ‘make or break’ part of the season is upon Barcelona in Spanish top flight football. With a meagre five La Liga matches remaining, La Blaugrana are still in the hunt of their fourth successive domestic league title despite being 10 points adrift of leaders,
Real Madrid, at the start of March.
Pep Guardiola’s men are on a run of 11 successive league wins, their best in the season thus far, and need to defeat all of their next rivals to have a chance of lifting the league crown come the end of May.
In their latest league outing, the Catalan club travelled to Valencian Community for their match against the impressive Levante. Jose Barkero gave La Granotas the lead in the first period but was helpless as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lionel-Messi-c22296 scored another brace to earn a victory
for the travelling side.
The Camp Nou-based outfit play host to la Liga leaders, Real Madrid, as they step out on the pitch for their next league game on April 21. Barcelona have not lost to Jose Mourinho’s men at home and need to win the upcoming fixture to bridge the gap at the
top of Primera Division rankings.
With the match carrying a lot of weight in deciding the outcome of eventual Spanish champions, players from both camps have come out in the media to voice their opinions.
Barcelona goalkeeper, Victor Valdes, has contrary views on the title race. The Spanish international argued that El Clasico carries a lot of importance but claimed it will not be decisive in the eventual coronation.
Continuing on the topic, he added that he is eager to play against Galacticos v.20 at the Camp Nou and enjoys the pressure of such critical matches in the campaign.
"The Clasico will be very important, but not decisive," Valdes noted. "Even if we win, we will still not depend on ourselves to win the league.
"The week we have ahead is one of those which give this http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684 a meaning."
The final El Clasico of La Liga is scheduled to kick off at 22 00 hours CET.
