Barcelona will be looking to bounce back when they welcome lowly Elche in a crucial La Liga fixture at Camp Nou on Saturday. The Catalan giants won their first two La Liga games under Xavi Hernandez’s guidance against Espanyol and Villarreal, but they have picked up just one point from their last two games. Barca faced defeat at home to Real Betis earlier this month before being held to a 2-2 stalemate by Osasuna last weekend. The La Liga outfit find themselves in eighth place in the Spanish top flight with 24 points from 16 matches.
On the other hand, Elche hover just above the relegation zone, as they have won three of their 17 games this season, with 15 points to their name. The Green-striped ones suffered a 2-1 away defeat against Valencia at Mestalla in their last league match and are currently in the 16th position. Both sides will be aiming to get their La Liga campaign back on track, especially the hosts as they cannot afford another poor result in this easy encounter.
