Following a tough fight for a goal won in Real Valladolid over the weekend, twice in defense The League Barcelona champions return to action for their last home game of the season when they welcome Osasuna to the largest stadium on Earth.
All ten matches of the 37th day will start at the same time, and Real Madrid will be champion with a win over Villarreal at the Santiago Bernabeu. It doesn’t matter what Barça does if Madrid get three points, but the Blaugrana they can certainly put some pressure on their rivals by sending Osasuna early and hoping that the Yellow Submarine will be able to organize a good fight in the Spanish capital.
The truth is that there is a huge probability that Madrid will win the title on Thursday evening, so all Barça can do is win their game and play in the best way possible to finish the title game with dignity and provide hope for what a trophy this season will become their only chance: the Champions League in August.
to lose The League it’s not something that Barça fans have been used to in the last decade, so it’s a good idea to prepare for a sad and painful night. But all we can do is hope for the best and the race for the title is not over yet. Until then, we keep fighting. And we continue to support Barça. Forever.
POSSIBLE LINEUPS
Barcelona (4-3-3): Ter Stegen; Roberto, Piqué, Lenglet, Alba; Rakitic, Busquets, Puig; Messi, Suárez, Ansu Fati
Osasuna (3-4-3): Herrera; García, Navas, Aridane; Vidal, Moncayola, Mérida, Lato; Arnáiz, Gallego, Barja
PREDICTION
Much of what happens in this game will be dictated by what happens in Madrid, but I still expect Barça to start strong and eventually slow down if and when Real advance the title in his game: 2-0 for the home team and a couple for Messi.
