Barcelona vs Elche 18.12.2021

As Barcelona hosts Elche at the Camp Nou on Saturday evening, they will be looking to get back on course in La Liga. Just at weekend, Xavi’s men were held to a 2-2 stalemate by Osasuna, sending the squad to eighth place in the table. Barca is aiming to get closer to a Champions League berth, so expect them to go all out against Los Franjiverdes.

Elche, on the other side, is seeking to avenge a 2-1 defeat to Valencia. Los Franjiverdes have a reputation of performing far better at home than on the road, and despite Xavi’s troops being plagued by injuries, a home win should be contemplated. Only one omission in the away team should be defender Pedro Bigas.
