Barbastro and Barcelona will meet again in the Copa Del Rey Round of 32 at the Estadio Municipal de Deportes Stadium, Barbastro Sunday, January 07, 2024. Here’s the preview, h2h stats, predicted line-up, TV channel info, live streaming service providers and how to watch online.
Barcelona just won their match against Las Palmas with a score of 2-1 in La Liga, but the victory did not come easily. Barca’s performance when playing at home to opponents recently has not been good, with three matches without a win. In fact, they lost 2-3 against Antwerp in the Champions League.
On the other hand, Barbastro, despite being a team from the Spanish fourth division, has had a good performance recently. They have won four matches and drawn the last five. In fact, they have not conceded a goal in their last five matches. This shows that their defense is very strong and will be a challenge for Barcelona’s attack line.
Barbastro will likely choose a defensive and counter-attacking strategy against Barcelona. With Barca’s attack line being less stable recently, it will be difficult for the visitors to score goals. In fact, Gary Neville, a former professional football player and Sky Sports commentator, predicted that Barcelona would only win by one goal.
For this match, Barbastro has three players injured: Fernando Arnedillo, Iker Balda, and Jaime Vegas. However, they still have a strong squad and will play with a defense-oriented 5-3-2 formation.
Meanwhile, Xavi’s team also has several injured players, including Marc-Andre ter Stegen, Marcos Alonso, Inigo Martinez, Gavi, Pedri and Cancelo. However, they have a deep squad and Xavi can rotate players to fill empty positions. In this match, Lionel Messi’s former club will probably play many substitute players, including new player Vitor Roque.
Overall, the warm-up matches ahead of the second half of the season will be a challenge for Barcelona. They will face a team that is in good form and has a strong defense.
Despite being favored, Barcelona have actually been unable to keep their net clean in nine of their last ten matches. This is an alarming statistic and shows that their defense can be penetrated by opposing teams.
