Ready for a massive clash at the Camp Nou

The Camp Nou hosts a key clash in the race for LaLiga on Saturday as first-placed Atleti take on third-placed FC Barcelona. The game is to kick off at 4.15pm CET.
Both sides are separated by just two points – and with just four games to go, Saturday’s match could be decisive. Moreover, the team with the best defensive record in the competition (Atleti, 22 goals conceded) will face the side that has scored the most goals (FC Barcelona, 80).
Out of those 80 goals, 28 have been netted by Lionel Messi, who produced a brace at the weekend against Valencia as his side won 3-2. On the other hand, Simeone’s men won 1-0 at Elche thanks to Marcos Llorente’s strike, who already has produced 12 goals and 11 assists in the current LaLiga season.
The assist was provided by another in-form player – Yannick Carrasco, who in the last five games has registered four assists and three goals. The Belgian was also the goalscorer in the reverse fixture, in which we beat Koeman’s side 1-0 at the Wanda Metropolitano on Nov. 21.
