Barcelona is not strong in the Champions League, but Barcelona is the strongest team in La Liga, Copa Del Rey and Spanish Super Cup. Apart from lead the La Liga standings, Barcelona also has a good record from every home match where they only conceded 1 home goal in 9 matches. Barcelona is also the team with the best defense so far in La Liga where only 6 goals have been conceded in all league match.
Of course Real Sociedad are not a team to be underestimated, but this is a Copa Del Rey match that is likely to have different atmosphere for the two teams. Barcelona and Sociedad are fighting for semi-final ticket, and I believe Barcelona will win it.
Barcelona played very well in this match, they were able to create some pretty good chances until the match entered the 40rd minute. However, the opportunities they have have not been able to be executed into goals. I'm pretty sure Barcelona can win this match because in terms of their game they can relatively score goals in this match. but real sociedad defense was good enough they were able to break several attacks carried out by barcelona.
it looks like Xavi will continue to give directions to keep pressing Real Sociedad in this match, he hopes Lewandowski can contribute goals in this match.
