Both the Blaugrana and the Rojiblancos have flattered to deceive in the Spanish championship this season, though a win in this clash would be a major fillip in the battle for a spot in next season\u2019s UEFA Champions League.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI see a Barcelona [side] under construction and an Atletico [side] in a good shape, but that doesn\u2019t mean anything,\u201d said Barca manager Xavi. \u201cWe have faced them in all situations. It will not be easy to impose our game because they are the reigning champions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/22191989129,1002554\/MGL\/mgl_ado_atunwa_300x250 --><\/p>\n<p>With at last one of Barcelona or Atletico set to drop points, this round represents a key opportunity for the other clubs fighting for European places: Real Betis will look to get the better of Villarreal, while Real Sociedad have a tricky trip away to Valencia.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am\u00a0very excited and very happy to have arrived at this club that is doing a lot of good things,\u201d said Real Sociedad\u2019s Rafinha, who was signed from Paris Saint-Germain. \u201cThis project and the hunger that they have to win brings me excitement, to achieve beautiful things. I am very happy and I am physically well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Real Madrid, meanwhile, will look to keep up their push for the La Liga title when they welcome Granada to Estadio Santiago Bernabeu, while nearest challengers Sevilla will be away to mid-table Osasuna and must claim all three points to keep some pressure on Los Blancos.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe know that we are entering a very critical part of the season,\u201d said Los Nervionenses boss Julen Lopetegui. \u201cWe must work hard, keep our heads down and get the results. We can see where we are when the campaign is nearing an end in a couple of months.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>No rival can compete with SuperSport\u2019s coverage.
