Barcelona Form

Barcelona are undefeated in 17 of their last 18 matches in all competitions and won seven straight in La Liga. Their defence consistently lets them down, failing to keep a clean sheet in their last six matches.

Ronald Koeman’s side suffered a huge scare at Granada in the Copa del Rey. Down 2-0 with time running out, two late goals forced extra time where Antoine Griezmann, Frenkie de Jong and Jordi Alba scored to win 5-3.

Barcelona needed an 87th minute goal from Trincao to take all three points in a 3-2 win at Real Betis. Their luck ran out at Sevilla in the Copa del Rey, losing 2-0 in the semi-final first leg.

Barcelona’s last match was a 5-1 home win against Deportivo Alaves. Trincao and Lionel Messi bagged braces with Junior Firpo rounding it off.

Barcelona Team News

Barcelona centre-backs Gerard Piqué and Ronald Araujo are injured alongside the versatile Sergi Roberto.

Attacking midfielder Philippe Coutinho is injured alongside forwards Ansu Fati and Martin Braithwaite.

Paris Saint-Germain Form

Paris Saint-Germain are in a battle to win Ligue 1 after five defeats in their opening 25 league matches.

PSG have started to find consistency under Mauricio Pochettino, winning 8 of their last 9 matches in all competitions.

The Parisians won 3-0 against Nimes and 2-0 at Marseille in Ligue 1. They then won 1-0 at Caen in the French Cup which came at a cost with Neymar injured.

PSG’s last match was a 2-1 home win against Nice. Julian Draxler opened the scoring and Moise Kean scored the winner in the 76th minute.
