I see Barcelona are at the top of the table with five wins in a row so what are they struggling with? they are now easy to always get a win in every game, Xavi only needs to prepare their team to face Real Madrid on 16 october this because this is an opponent that is not easy for Barcelona.
Easy? I don't think so, after losing some of their core players to injuries it's clear that this has had a big impact and it shows because they're really struggling to score goals in the games they play.In the last 2 matches in La Liga they did manage to win, but this does not cover the fact that they are struggling and that is evidenced by they only scored narrow wins against clubs that are far below them.
Rudiger will not play on that match caused by was getting serious injury during his last match with real madrid even though i will still pick real madrid as my favorite in this case caused by the result from the champion league is making team even better.
He's most likely going to play. They are even looking for a perfect fit face mask for him to wear. I think I even saw a photo of him training today
