FCBarcelona will be facing Atletico Madrid tonight at 8:45 PM IST in the Camp Nou as they look to steal the 4th position in the currently unexpectedly stacked La Liga table.
The Blaugrana currently stand at 5th with 35 points just 1 behind the second Madrid club at 4th with 36. With Barcelona making massive signings this January, we look forward to seeing the likes of Aubemayeng, Dani Alves, Traore and Torres all in one squad.
The biggest question remains which position and who will Xavi play in the forward as he stands with a tonne of choices currently. Possible combinations include Jutgla-Depay-Torres, Fatti-Aubemayeng-Dembele, Abde-Luuk-Traore or Fati-Braithwaite-Torres.
With Atletico playing the aggressive attacking game, Barcelona will need to find a way to use the likes of Araujo and Pique properly in the back with wingers like Torres and Traore making the runs ahead.
If Barcelona win the match, they will stand a chance to make it to the UEFA Champions League group stage next year, but more importantly, Barcelona will prove that they can still play with the big teams and win. Meanwhile Atletico warms up with a couple of matches before they meet Manchester United in the Round of 16 of Champions League.
