Barcelona host Granada after 2-1 loss to Real Sociedad
This Saturday at Estadi Johan Cruyff, Barça aim to keep top spot before travelling to Denmark on Thursday the 29th.
Barcelona, coached by Pere Romeu, take on Granada this Saturday at Estadi Johan Cruyff after their first loss of the season: they went down 2-1 at Zubieta against Real Sociedad, despite taking the lead through an early goal by Patri Guijarro.
The team needs to restore its rhythm and scoring accuracy after the international break. Aitana Bonmatí returned to the starting XI after recovering from physical issues, and Barça remain top of the table with 18 points from seven matches, six wins, 29 goals for and just four conceded.
Granada arrive in eighth place on ten points, looking to compete hard for chances. Cata Coll is back after resting following her withdrawal from the Spain camp due to minor complaints, according to Mundo Deportivo.
The match also sets up Barça’s next Champions League outing: on Thursday, 29 October, they travel to Denmark to face HB Køge, aiming for a third European win. Koundé stays out, and Flick has called up Goren and Tunkara with two days until El Clásico.
