Barcelona got bad news last night after two main players Frankie de Jong and Pedri have out on first half match against Athletic Bilbao after serious injured when potential will absent for the second leg match in Champion League against Napoli. Its very bad news because Barcelona position not comfort yet with the first leg match is draw and I don't think who will be compete for replacing both midfielder crucial position for Barcelona.
Left one week later before facing Napoli but I don't sure between Pedri and Frenkie de Jong will get faster recovery from injury, Xavi Hernandez must looking other alternatives for replacing both of them position and can perform well. Upcoming match in domestic league against Real Sociedad, Xavi must take care their players without injury yet or losing opportunity for defeating Napoli.
This is bad news for Barcelona but is good news for Napoli. The second leg match between them will be hosted by Barcelona at Nou Camp but with good performances of Napoli recent weeks, and they just won over Juventus in Serie A, Barcelona actually have risk to lose at their home stadium.
With a draw in the first leg, Barcelona need to beat Napoli at their home stadium to be named in quarter finals. De Jong and Pedri are very important players for Barcelona and with information from
Sportsgambler.com, these players will not be available for a match with Napoli.
This is big loss for Barcelona in this important match while they really need to go farther in Champions League.
