Barcelona – Espanyol preview
Right now, Barcelona have 2 points less than Real Madrid, who are on the top of the table. But Barca have every right to hope to overtake that spot if they continue playing well.
Barcelona have won every game since the beginning of November. In that period they have allowed only 2 goals (1 against Sevilla and 1 against Almeria), while scoring 18 times. Their attackers, Messi and Neymar have simply been brilliant. But, it seems that Barcelona are going to be even more lethal in the near future as Luis Suarez has started playing after serving his suspension. He has played 5 league games so far, but is still without a goal to his name in La Liga.
Espanyol are Barcelona’s city rivals and will certainly give their best in this game. It seems, however, that it will not be enough. Barcelona are just way better than them.
