BAR vs ELC La Liga 2021-22 Preview:
Barcelona host struggling Elche CF at Camp Nou in the La Liga fixture on Saturday night. Mighty Barcelona are witnessing one of the worst seasons and things will be much worse if they fail to win against another struggling side Elche today.
Barcelona enter this fixture after a disappointing 2-2 away draw against Osasuna last Sunday. They lost the lead two times in each half which cost them 2 points in a crucial fixture. After this, they also lost the club friend fixture four days ago against Boca Juniors on penalties. They now sit at 8th position in the league table with 24 points in 16 fixtures. They are 18 points well behind leaders Real Madrid and 5 points behind fourth-placed Atletico Madrid.
On the other hand, Elche are enjoying good form recently. They enter this fixture after a 2-1 away loss against Valencia last Saturday. The match was set to be a stalemate with a score of 1-1, but Valencia substitute Cristiano Piccini score the winner just before the final whistle. This was a disappointing result for manager Francisco, who was enjoying good results recently. They now sit at 16th position in the league table with 15 points from 17 league fixtures, 2 points off the relegation zone.
Elche have managed to win 1 and drawn 1 match in their last three league matches. They also managed to win the first and second rounds of Copa del Rey this month. So it will be a good morale boost for them going into today’s fixture. Barcelona have managed just 1 win in their last 5 matches and hiring Xavi as a manager is looking like a gamble from the new management. Catalan giants need to find consistency soon if they wish to finish in the top-four this season.
