Barcelona host Celta Vigo on Saturday hoping to collect all three points to increase their advantage over Real Madrid in the La Liga title race.
The Catalans saw their historic 24-game unbeaten run come to an end midweek in the 1–3 defeat to Borussia Dortmund in the second leg of the Champions League quarterfinals. Still, Barça are semifinalists (after their 5-3 on aggregate win) and will now look to go on another unbeaten streak to end the campaign.
Celta Vigo are clawing for the final European places in La Liga and will be eager to get points from this match like they did in the reverse fixture back in November. Barcelona, though, will be confident on returning to winning ways having lost just one of the 10 league games they've played at home vs. Celta in the past decade.
Hansi Flick slammed La Liga in his pre-match press conference given his side will play their fifth match in less than two weeks. The busy schedule could see the German manager try to rotate his squad, but with Real Madrid close behind, Barcelona can't afford to drop points at home.
Here's how Barcelona could lineup vs. Celta Vigo on Apr. 19.
