Big game tonight. Barcelona must win this match, another loss of points, at this stage of the season may mean the end of dreams about the championship. However, it will be hard to win because Barcelona is not in top form lately. The good news for them is that Koke won't play, because he pause for cards. This is a big weakness for Atletico. I have a feeling that Messi's genius will once again ensure Barcelona's victory.
Hala Madrid.
With Zinédine Zidane, I still believe that Real Madrid will be able to come out as champions this season

yeah man, if they do not win this season, it will only their fault, since they have clear situation at the moment, two points above Barca, and all matches are in "easy" category until the end of the season, expect Bilbao
but, Atletico could do them a favor tonight in Barcelona, so they do not have to worry about the title anymore
It is true if Barcelona cannot win at the expense of Athletico tonight it will be a shock for Barcelona fans, despite the riyal leading the ladder by two points, they must stand and achieve more victories until the end of the season.
Will Messi finally score his 700 goal? Messi goalscorer @2.08 odds...and Griezmann @3.70! you never know =P
I do hope Messi gets his 700th for a guaranteed win and also stake currently have a promo for this match where all 1x2 bets are settled as a win if certain players makes a goal.The only problem is how Barcelona will react after the break in the leagues.
They looked pretty okay in their last five but the two draws were pretty costly. It's probably going to be a win for Barca or another draw. Hala Madrid.

With Zinédine Zidane, I still believe that Real Madrid will be able to come out as champions this season and now Barcelona often have problems between players, even Messi also has problems with coaching staff, this condition is very helpful for Real Madrid to win. If Barcelona unable to improve conditions in the dressing room, then their game will be very disturbed.

FUN FACT about the pjanic-arthur swap
Both pjanic and arthur now officially added to the list of the luckiest footballer to ever play with 2 GOAT both messi and cristiano.
Here's the full list :
-snipped
Angel di Maria , Pique, Deco, Garay, Henrik Larsson, Caceres, Andre gomes.
Wanna add some more?
I can say Di Maria is the luckiest one since he also played with Zlatan and right now playing with Neymar and Mbappe as the next generations that probably would win Ballon d'Or someday.Both pjanic and arthur now officially added to the list of the luckiest footballer to ever play with 2 GOAT both messi and cristiano.

I thought Barca would stopped their weird behavior on transfer window after brought Boateng and Braithwaite. But well.... Not saying Pjanic is a bad player, but I'd rather spend that money to bring Eriksen that has similar playing style with Rakitic. Pjanic is good with his free kick, but who can take that while Messi is there.
Di maria stand on top of the luckiest player to play with those three legends.
About the arthur transfer , i see that a lot of barca fans angry on what the management have done, selling young talented players to get an experienced old player.
Where's the logic? Lol this is hilarious decision I've ever seen .
Croatian online portal Index just shared unofficial news from spanish Catalan radio.
Barcelona president Bartomeu, vice president Bordas, Grau and Abidal, all members of Barcelona management, visited Setien yesterday at his home and gave him ultimatum.
If he wants to save his job, Barcelona must win in the next 2 matches with Atletico and Villarreal
Otherwise, they will replace him with Pimienta who is coach in Barcelona B currently.

Yea right like he could guarantee his team will win or lose. And do they need really to visit his home to tell him that? I find this news a little bit pathetic. Go ATM and show them their size... They need to reconsider their strategies in the medium and long term or else they will be playing in mid table in the next years.

Just checked my bookie and saw Barcelona to WIN @1.89!! wut? 
when was the last time you saw such odds for Barca?
BTTS or Atletico X2 would be my picks...This is gonna be one hell of a game. A win for Barca could mean a turning point in the season, losing prolly means saying goodbye to the title race and Setien getting sacked this very same week. Will Messi finally score his 700 goal? Messi goalscorer @2.08 odds...and Griezmann @3.70! you never know =P

1.89 is definitely a great rate for a Barça match. You should not miss this opportunity. The only problem is how Barcelona will react after the break in the leagues.
End of an era for Barca, they’ll have to build again soon or get left behind. Time waits for nobody!
It seems they already have a tendency to rely too much on players like Messi, Suarez, and another player in these images. When these players are absent or do not get free space on the field, this can cause imbalances in the team. I think they will become "AC Milan volume 2" when they lose the core players due to retirement or are too old, they can't do much in the domestic or European leagues. then, they will start to have trouble finding a coach who can build a team like Rijkaard, just as Ancelotti coached Milan. (IMO)

As I predicted above, Getafe won with score 2-1 against Real Sociedad.
Mata scored both goals for home team, and away team had only one shot on the goal, and five shots in total. You can't expect to have good result like that.
Getafe is now very near to Sevilla and fight to get in Champions League.

summarizing everything:
In the next few years when Messi retires from Barcelona, Real Madrid will be able to be a successive champion and will not be under great pressure. this is very good for me as a fan of real madrid
FC Barcelona - Atletico Madrid
Atletico Madrid is very motivated for this game (man, how would I like to see the faces of Barcelona fans if Barcelona lose this game).

Doesn't look good when you see all those key players at the end of their best playing years. Previously there was always some new players coming from youth squad but I don't see any leaders growing up soon enough to help this time around.
Barca has a tough game tonight and I am not sure they can win and keep pressure on Real. They will have to come out playing their best for sure. Atletico is not the team that will gift them with anything.

Barcelona also have signed Pjanic from Juventus for £62m. The Bosnian midfielder has signed four year contract with Barcelona. Good deal for both sides as Juventus got a young talented midfielder Arthur and Barcelona got their target plus also got a little bit improvement in their financial situation.
Pjanic will be a great addition to the Barcelona's mid. Can't wait him to see him in action.
People talked about the great freekick skills of Pjanic but why Barca need the skill because Messi already does it so well. In the midfiled area, they already have De Jong who has nearly same playing style of Pjanic. Pjanic will be a great addition to the Barcelona's mid. Can't wait him to see him in action.
This is a very good deal for Juventus; and frankly Juventus Director of football deserves some form of accolades for several transfer activities he pans out seamlessly and easily; picking the best midfielders around europe for close to nothing. The transfer helps Barcelona balance out their FFP issues; while it is a big challenge for Arthur to take charge and make the best out of his move to Serie A; a good versatile midfielder maltreated by Barcelona.
On the other hand; it is a good deal for Pjanic; gets a good pay rise; play with messi and gain more few hypes around social media and endorsement.
It is truly a very good transfer for Juventus. Pjanic is not young and £62m is a great value for a transfer in the pandemic time and many clubs have financial troubles. Juventus usually are very smart on transfer market.On the other hand; it is a good deal for Pjanic; gets a good pay rise; play with messi and gain more few hypes around social media and endorsement.
Generally, the problems of Barca are not quality of their players or new transfers. Their current squad are good enough, of course having some good transfers for weak positions is good. Their problems belong to the coach / manager position. They need to sign a contract with someone who understand Barca, and have good reputation. Pep?
Yep, some journalists are saying that the relationship between players (with Messi leading the pack) and the coaching staff is nonexistent...Obviously, whenever this sort of stuff happens, the first one to get kicked out of the team is the head coach...I'm starting to think the problem isn't the managers in Barca, but rather the players who think they're above the manager.
Haha yes, and also the board obviously. Couple years ago, Barcelona spent less and recruited more from their academy La Masia. Nowadays, they are turning into a team that makes records on signing new players in every transfer window. Their management is not as healthy as when led by Joan Laporta. But recently I read that Laporta is trying to be the club president again soon. Cant say if it's a good or bad move. But surely Barca needs a refreshment on their management.FUN FACT about the pjanic-arthur swap

Judging by this article in Marca: https://www.marca.com/en/football/barcelona/2020/06/29/5ef9c81722601d03268b45a9.html
in Barcelona there is a complete breakdown of the system and a major clash between players and coaches.
Does such Barcelona have any chance against Real?
What do you think?

Does such Barcelona have any chance against Real?
What do you think?
I think the main problem that Barcelona is having right now, is that they rely 100% on Messi. If Messi doesn't deliver, than nobody does.
Given the schedule that Barcelona and Real are having, chances are quite high that Real Madrid will win the title. And that is also what the bookies are thinking, because odd of Real for winning the title is around 1.3.
Argentina national team and Barcelona rely really to much on Messi already to long, ,maybe last 5-6 years or more.
In this period both teams didn't achieve some big results, Argentina didn't become world champion and Barcelona couldn't win CL.
Messi can't do everything alone, without support from others.
I feel sorry for him; probably the best player in the world history after Pele and Maradona but can't win any more "big " titles like CL because his players can't follow him and play on the same level.
Pjanic will be a great addition to the Barcelona's mid. Can't wait him to see him in action.
Nah, I think he's going to rot on bench just like the young promising Arthur Mello was. Everything in Barcelona rotates around Messi. Look at all Barcelona's latest signings. Barcelona's last brilliant signings were probably Suarez and Neymar.I agree with you, there is a possibility that Pjanic doesn't get a chance to play much. And may not be able to adapt to the team
as big as Barcelona. After all, for a 30-year-old the price is too high, this is a good deal for Juventus. Hopefully the conjecture
I'm wrong, Miralem Pjanic can play well and can turn on the Barcelona midfield.
