With Barcelona leading the top of the La Liga table, the Catalan giants will now shift their attention to Athletic Bilbao in their next La Liga assignment at San Mames on Saturday.
As it stands, Barcelona has accumulated 64 points from 26 matches, four points clear of second-placed Real Madrid, who are scheduled to face Getafe on Monday night. Barca have thus accumulated 64 points from 26 matches this season as they hope to retain the La Liga crown.
Regarding their form, Barcelona last recorded a 4-1 win over Villareal, securing four wins and one loss in their previous five league fixtures.
Bilbao are currently in ninth position after their 1-1 draw with Rayo Vallecano this past Saturday. Athletic have 35 points after 26 matches and hopes to finish in a European spot next season.

Following Barcelona’s win over Villareal, Hansi Flick praised his side’s efforts before singling out Lamine Yamal, who netted an impressive hat-trick at Camp Nou.
“I want to praise the whole team. When we lost the ball, we pressed very well, and that’s what we need,” Flick said.
“He’s exceptional and he’s here to make people happy. We need his goals to give him confidence.
“He’s very young and he still has to improve, but everyone knows the quality he has. Opponents put two or three players on him and that makes it difficult. Today I’m very happy for him. When he enjoys his football, it’s perfect for him and for us.”
