Statistically, Barcelona is superior, but Manchester United is a strong team.
If they want to win this match, Barcelona must bring out their best.
And to win the championship title, there is still a long way to go.
There are still clubs that can become stumbling blocks, such as Arsenal and Feyenoord,
who are currently at the top of their respective league standings.
Which statistic makes Barcelona superior? Because in the past when there was Messi at Barcelona, this team began to fail in the Champions League which in the end was in the European League. So which statistic do you mean superior to Barcelona?
Manchester United is a team from England which is fundamentally different from Spanish teams like Barcelona. So if you want to compare these two teams in terms of statistics, then you need to look at every data and achievement of these two teams so that everyone can know which team's statistics are superior.
Maybe, what @koang meant was Man United's performance and Barcelona's performance. so I guess, that he put in terms of comparison for this season. especially when he refers to United's performances, since the first game this season. there is nothing wrong, I think everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
after all, if we refer to these two clubs based on the statistics of their achievements in all competitions. and as you said, but the fact is that these two clubs are giants in their respective Domestic Leagues. and again, if we compare the two teams that will compete later. and if, there is a difference of opinion it is a matter of course. there will always be debate, some say United is better, some say Barcelona will have no trouble overthrowing Man United in the playoffs later.
but in truth, we never knew before this match was actually held. IMO, Manchester United still lacks both in terms of attacking midfielders and sharpness on their front lines, as well as Barcelona which is weak in terms of defense. Ten Hag and Xavi will prepare their troops for this match later, these two coaches will ensure their troops play with high performance to win the battle in the playoff match later.
