Granada are hosting Barcelona in Estadio Nuevo Los Carmenes Stadium today in a very tense encounter. Host club Granada are unbeaten in 6 leagues fixtures beating the likes of Atlético Madrid, and Sevilla this season. They are much of a surprise team who doesn’t a particular key player as any player can have a moment of their own.
Visiting Club Barcelona are not having the best of their moment as they sit on the 5th spot on the league table with 15 points behind Real Madrid at the top and a point or two away from the top four.

Marc-André Stegen will be in the goal post as usual. Jordi Alba will take the Left position, Gerard Piqué in the center back partnering Eric Garcia who is covering for Ronald Araújo due to injury, and Óscar Mingueza in for Sergiño Dest.

The Los Blancos are leading with 46 points, 5 points ahead of Sevilla (2nd), and will be hoping to sway all three points at Santiago Bernabeu today.
Coach Ancelotti and his boys lost in their last league fixture against Getafe by a goal to nil on away and will be looking to bounce back in today’s fixture by making a little shuffle in the squad.
