FC Barcelona will try to get closer to Real Madrid by beating Alaves.

The time has come, after the victories of Girona and Real Madrid yesterday in La Liga, now it is FC Barcelona's turn, who have fallen behind in the standings. FC Barcelona receives Alavés at home, in gameweek number twelve of the Spanish first division.

FC Barcelona will be home but of course in what has become a custom with Montjuic as the setting. His rival is shipwrecked at the bottom and is also urgent to achieve a happiness if he does not want to have to go through surprises with those three places in red that mark the relegation.

Xavi Hernández has to raise his troops after the defeat in the Champions League to achieve a victory that leaves him in good standing before interrupting the tournament for the FIFA date. That is why he puts the best he has at his disposal on the field with Marc André Ter Stegen, Joao Cancelo, Jules Kounde, Iñigo Martínez, Alejandro Balde, Ilkay Gundogan, Oriol Romeu, Pedri, Lamine Yamal, Robert Lewandowski and Joao Félix.

How is the League going?

With the victories of Girona and Real Madrid, the two teams were at the top with 34 and 32 points respectively. FC Barcelona has 27 and one game less while Atlético de Madrid also has 25 with a duel pending. Thus, the Blaugrana victory is necessary to be able to achieve a victory that allows them to continue dreaming of the main positions and the title fight.
