Barcelona recently just bought a player for 55 million. Still great that they can do something like this while the club is in the red. But yes, if you want to get into the plus first, you have to sell the entire team and you only have Barcelona B left. And dembele, for example, who thinks it's fine, gets a fortune in salary every year. He's not interested in leaving, why should he?
Just because they managed to sign Ferran Torres recently does not mean they have a green light to sign anymore they feel like. Barcelona as a club is still in financial crisis and overhauling the team at once right now isn't a good idea.

By the looks of it, Barcelona will want to start the new year with a winning streak, with them doing "better" or basically others doing worse, they are at a good advantageous spot right now. Not saying that sociedad will end up losing more and more, but there is a good possibility. I agree with D-law that betis may end up losing points as well, which means there is a realistic chance that Barcelona could be second in the league.

I know that most people may consider "so what?" on something like that in any other year but this year it is obvious that they are not doing something that is regular and this is why it is definitely a different situation to be in. I am hoping for the best, but some stuff will change in the league for sure. Imagine things shaking where Barcelona moves from mid table which was crazy enough to second place, that will cause a lot of trouble for other teams for sure.

Atletico Madrid - Rayo Vallecano is going to be one of the most interesting games of the week I guess. It would be a competitive game surely and there is no clear favourite in this one. Atletico Madrid are searching a way out of this poor condition of theirs. They lost many points recently and they are far away from their chance for the La Liga championship from now on. And Vallecano are the opposite. They have risen in the standings a lot and they are a big threat for Atletico Madrid here. But I want to believe that Atletico Madrid will put an end to their miserable condition by winning this.

The 19th round of La Liga is indeed the most interesting match is the Atletico vs Rayo Vallecano match, the result of this match will be very important
for both teams. Especially for Atlético who definitely want to recover from the bad results in the last 4 matches, I'm sure Atletico will try to win the game.
And for Rayo Vallecano they definitely want to stay in the top 4 so they can play in the Champions League next season. So Rayo Vallecano definitely don't
want to lose and they position will go down if they lose to Atletico. But my prediction is that Atletico will play more attacking than Rayo Vallecano.
Besides Atletico having better quality players, Atletico also play at home, so they are more obsessed with winning games. Honestly, this is a difficult match
to predict, but it looks like the game will end in a draw.

Have you looked at the quotes that bookmakers give for this match? I'm not saying that they are 100% correct, but roughly we can understand the combined opinion of fans + experts + AI analyzing statistics and many other countable factors. Atletico's victory in this match is quoted with odds of 1.33, which means that Atletico is ranked as the clear favorite in this confrontation.

Do you mean the 55 million player is ferran torres? Ferran Torres has indeed been obtained by Barcelona at an expensive price, but that does not mean that Barcelona's finances have recovered, the good relationship between Barcelona and Guardiola is the reason for the success of the transfer, including the acceptance of Barcelona request to buy Torres with a four-time payment scheme or debt and the first payment will be made in the summer.
Dembele refused to reduce wages made by Barcelona and forced Barcelona to have to release Dembele now, in addition Dembele, barcelon also to releasing Coutinho and Samuel Umititi who have high salaries, Barcelona had to do so that they could register Ferran Torres and Dani Alves to the La Liga authorities.

Like everyone else, I also think that the Ferran Torres deal is a really nice one for Barcelona as he would bring some creativity to the team - which is something that has been lacking in this Barcelona team. The most likely outcome now would be for Dembele to leave and Barcelona can finally breathe a sigh of relief as they don't need to worry about Dembele's high salary and yet he hasn't been producing the much-needed results since he's an injury-prone player.

I expect more departures and more arrivals in the January transfer window as Xavi would want to build his own team.

Surely this is going to be very important match for both teams before this break Atletico Madrid were second worst team behind Real Sociedad with losing four matches in row now it's good time for having some better result with few teams are now approaching for better spot with their form and this could be very big challenge for both teams.

With Currently Real Madrid and Sevilla are much ahead with their opponents in points gape these both teams will do their best for having all points and keep their place at top with Betis is staying at 3rd and now Valencia and Barcelona are also improved sides for having good challenge to top teams. Hopefully Atletico Madrid will be on better side in this match after very miserable end before break.

FC Barcelona is having big problems!

There are a total of 14 Barcelona players injured and COVID-19 respectively. So who plays against Mallorca? Matches in La Liga on January 3rd are coming, but I don't expect top players to be available until then. I don't see this match taking place. It will be postponed. The Catalans are struggling, and worse things are about to happen.
Barcelona is experiencing a Covid-19 storm crisis after confirming that 10 of their players have been affected by Covid 19. After before seven Barcelona players tested positive for Covid 19, now three important pillar players of Barcelona were declared positive for Covid 19 such as Sergino Dest, Philippe Coutinho and Ez Abde. Certainly not a good thing for Barcelona and potentially they will have a postponed game against Real Mallorca on 3 January. However, there has been no decision from La Liga whether this match will be postponed or Barcelona are required to play without the presence of their main players.
Barcelona's ordeal is still ongoing at this time and this makes it even more difficult for them to navigate the current season.
On the other hand, it's actually not only Barcelona who are now infected with covid, their strongest rival and even the current leader of the standings, namely Madrid, has experienced the same thing. like Alaba, Asensio and Modric, which have been resting for the past few weeks due to the outbreak of a new variant

Barcelona not get good opportunity right now and out from top four position make them not really happy situation right now, although match begin one week later they have get Ferran Torres from Manchester City and I think still not enough. Many other player want get by Xavi but financial make situation bad for Barcelona, still optimist with fans trusted Barcelona can back to position again? I think many possible for other club change position from Sevilla and Real Betis if keep consistent performance will make Barcelona out from champion league position next years.
That's a possibility it seems and I also totally agree with what you're saying because in the last two years Barcelona have really had a bad time and that has to do with the finances at the Barcelona club itself and from some of the games I've seen. Barcelona doesn't look so strong anymore even though there are still fans who are still optimistic about the Barcelona Club until now, but the hopes of winning the league title are very slim.

Surviving even in the top 5 standings for Barcelona is enough than not making the slightest movement. indeed nothing can be expected too big for this year. For Barcelona, they can only play where they want Xavi. I see Xavi is serious about educating his foster children who are still quite difficult to control. Meanwhile Alves can't move alone with his good qualities but doesn't have friends to attack.

If tomorrow Valencia can win the match against Espanyol, at least Valencia will move up to 4th place maybe it will only be entertainment for them at the end of the year. However, Espanyol's performance so far this season also looks quite good or at least can balance Valencia's gameplay for tomorrow's match. But even so, the record from Espanyol's away matches so far this season was not good enough and also, Valencia dominated head to head. That way, it looks like Valencia will be able to take advantage of the moment at the end of this year to get full points.

It will only worsen the atmosphere at Barcelona, they will only continue to sink and cannot get out of the threat zone. In addition to the Covid storm, the condition of the players is also difficult for Xavi to control. They only take advantage of the situation but when dealing with opponents it is not convincing at all. Now Barcelona will be getting ready against Mallorca, but as you said, the unfavorable conditions are feared to be delayed.

Atletico Madrid are out of form. They have lost the last 4 matches. However, there is no reason to think that Atletico Madrid will lose against Rayo Vallecano. I would like to highlight two figures. Madrid have won four of the last five matches between Atletico Madrid and Rayo Vallecano. A match has been drawn.

Secondly, it is Atletico Madrid's home match. Rayo Vallecano's team is very weak in the away match. They have managed to score 5 points in 9 away matches. So I think Atletico Madrid will return to form through this match.

There was no reason to think they'd lose 2 of their past four matches too (fine, losing to Sevilla and Real Madrid could be arguable that we all expected it), and they still lost it anyway.

Rayo know how to score, but Atletico know how to hit back, so it's going to be a battle of who does what they do best first!

ATM @1.33 5th place - Rayo Vallecano @11 4th place!
We all know that ATM is overall better and its chances for winning is higher but these odds sounds like ATM is facing a team in the second division and not the first one and certainly not a team in the top 4 spots Lips sealed
The other funny odds are Mallorca @3.7 and Barcelona @2, it is like people and bookies are trusting that Barca will win but not that much.

If Barcelona were playing at home, their chances would be closer to 1.5-1.6 I think. The chances in the pair Atletico - Rayo Vallecano are really very ridiculous, Atletico has one point less, while being quoted as if after the first half it is leading by 2 goals. The results of the games, in my opinion, will be random (due to the fact that they will take place immediately after the New Year's celebration), so it probably makes sense to bet on the underdogs.

I believe they can do that with the current squad. Although most people would not be very supportive of Barcelona. I see there are a lot of opportunities at the moment, when Atletico Madrid and Real Sociedad are at a disadvantage. Barcelona only need to win from Mallorca later on January 1 next. About 2 points is enough to raise points to rank 5 or 6.
Barcelona just need to maintain the consistency of their game in every match to win. It may sound difficult for Barcelona to play against big team like Sevilla, Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid, but the good thing about them now is that there is an improvement in the performance of their players. Barcelona are a big team in Laliga and I think they know what to do to improve their form, so I don't think qualifying for the Champions League next season is impossible.

I will probably look forward to the Mallorca vs Barcelona game in January, I think they deserve the 3 points there. Maybe Alves can also be listed as a regular player in January and also some new players who have arrived in the transfer market. That will help Barcelona improve its performance.
Besides taking advantage of the transfer market in January, Barcelona must also prepare a large fee. because the financial crisis, which we don't know about, will improve, hopefully when bringing in new players to fulfill the squad it should be reconsidered. Maybe a donation from several sponsors who have long been affiliated with Barcelona can provide a solution. Alves is also not too bad for Barcelona. Here Xavi's task will be even more difficult, preparing for the match against Mallorca provides a little fresh air. If you use it well and don't make many mistakes, especially in the back defense.

It is not usual to see such declines in Atletico Madrid, there are not many injured players of the main squad and their schedule of games is no more difficult than Real or Sevilla. Semione has to rectify the situation, it is necessary to motivate the players to win, it is very important to start winning matches in order to remove the moral pressure on the players. I expected Atletico to be able to win the match against Granada, but this did not happen. Hopefully they can milk the victory against Rayo.

Ahead of the match against mallorca, barcelona has now received quite bad news after three of its players tested positive for covid 19, Ousmane Dembele, Samuel Umtiti and Gavi have now completed the previous barcelona squad (Clement Lenglet, Dani Alves, Jordi Alba and Alejandro Balde) have been declared positive for covid 19, I think with the unavailability of an adequate squad to play in that match of course the Barcelona side will ask the La Liga board to postpone versus Mallorca match, I think this will be the first match that La Liga postponed this season due to the COVID-19 attack.
Among three positive players, only Gavi is important with Barcelona. Dembele and Umtiti are not important players for Barcelona so their absence because of positive test only creates a little bit of fear because lack of substitutions only. In fact, it won't affect choices of Xavi for Barcelona squad and might not affect how they play as well.

Also with Omicron variant, it is situation all clubs will have to face with, sooner or later. Barcelona as well as other clubs have to accept it and adapt to play with what resources they can have.
