Barcelona meets Man United, Barcelona is not doing well in UCL but is doing well in their domestic league (La liga) at least based on the position in the league, it's a different story for Man United (as they are still in transition at the moment) but the result of this match remains depending on how many players in both teams are still fit/injury free after the busy schedule of these few matches.
In history Man United have always struggled against Barcelona, but I think Man United know it has been fixed and are ready. Man United vs Barcelona is by far the biggest Europa league game of all time.
What I have noticed about Barcelona this season is that their performance in laliga is different from other leagues competitions, that is why am not convinced of Barcelona can defeat Manchester United. Before now Manchester United performance in Europa league have been very impressive. Barcelona focus more on laliga and might not put too much seriousness in europa league. It is true Manchester United have always been struggling with Barcelona but a different case might occur.
Europa league didn't seem to be included in the barcelona's priority. I meant Barcelona is much more caring with la liga rather than europa league. Laporta itself was not even taking europa league so much as its previous target was UCL.
I think that Barcelona was seeing europa league as bonus for the team if Barcelona can win the title but there are so many strong teams playing in europa league. Barcelona can't even win this trophy last year after being beaten by Frankfurt.
i think that Barcelona underestimating this competition so much. Let's see how good the performance by Barcelona against MU in the upcoming round of europa league.
