Freshly haloed by his coronation in the king's cup against Real Madrid, FC Barcelona does not have time to savor. On the road to Valladolid this Saturday, the men of Hansi Flick must continue their march forward to secure a liga title still far from being acquired. With four points ahead of their Madrid rival, the Blaugranas have the opportunity to widen the gap … provided that the trap of a relegation was released.
A trip not to be missed for Barça
Valladolid, a red lantern already sentenced to the Segunda, has nothing to play this season. But in the mind of the Catalan coach, the threat is elsewhere: that of a guilty relaxation, stuck between an exhausting final and a European shock to come against Inter Milan.
“In these matches, you can lose the liga”, Warned Flick, aware that this meeting has everything a trap, especially three days before a decisive trip to San Siro.
For this meeting in Zorrilla, Flick has already announced a large turnover, starting with the return to the cages of Marc-André Ter Stegen, after more than seven months of absence. Deprived of Koundé, but with several preserved executives, the German technician could align an unprecedented eleven with the young Forts, Fermín, Casadó or Dani Rodríguez.
TER Stegen Back, Rotations in sight
Faced with them, a team from Valladolid in free fall: only 16 points in 33 days, seven consecutive defeats and the worst defense of the championship with 81 goals collected. However, the memory of their 3-1 victory against Barça a year ago could serve as a last motivation. At home, the men of Álvaro Rubio will try to hang a giant to take out their heads high.
But Barça cannot afford a gap. With the clásico planned in eight days, and a semi-final return tense to come in C1, each point counts in this end of the breathtaking season. Flick hammered it: the attitude primera. It is by winning this type of matches that champions are built.
