The Barcelona La Liga title hopes it will depend on Sunday’s game at Villarreal. The two sides will meet at 16:00 at the Estadio de la Ceramica.
With league leaders Real Madrid a heavy favorite over Athletic Bilbao on Sunday morning, Barcelona’s four-point deficit puts the spotlight on the latter test.
Villarreal is heading north, winning four out of five games and conceding only two goals in the last 470 minutes. Both went to Sevilla 2-2 on 22 June.
Lionel Messi and Barcelona played 2-2 with Celta Vigo and Atletico Madrid in consecutive inclinations.
