It’s the last Barcelona Derby of the season! Thank goodness! Barcelona and Espanyol have already faced each other three times this season, with the Blaugrana winning two and the worst team in Catalonia getting a lucky win that ultimately meant nothing because they were kicked out of the Copa del Rey.
On Sunday they play for the last time in La Liga (and the whole campaign), and the hosts will once again be very annoying spoiled children who think they can beat Barça. Espanyol’s social media team will come up with another stupid tweet, and it’ll feel really good to kick their butts once more.
But maybe we won’t and Espanyol will have the last laugh. Imagine that...
POSSIBLE LINEUPS
Barcelona (4-4-2): Ter Stegen; Semedo, Piqué, Umtiti, Alba; Roberto, Paulinho, Rakitic, Coutinho; Messi, Suárez
Espanyol (4-2-3-1): López; Navarro, Hermoso, Duarte, Aarón; López, Sánchez; Baptistao, Darder, García; Moreno
PREDICTION
We should absolutely smash them to shut them up for several months, but I have a funny feeling about this one: 1-1 draw. Sorry, y’all.
