The Blaugrana will host Eibar on Saturday and will be looking for another confidence-boosting win ahead of their Champions League clash with Napoli.

What is the form of Barcelona compared to Eibar?

Barcelona head into this tie on the back of a two-game winning streak, bouncing back from that 1-0 loss to Athletic Club in the Copa del Rey. This means the Blaugrana have now won all but one of their last five games and have lost only three times in their last 21 matches.

As for Eibar, form does not favor them. The away side are winless in their last four matches and have won only three times from their last 15 fixtures, losing nine and drawing three. It is no wonder they are only three points adrift of the relegation zone.

Barcelona vs Eibar head-to-head record

These two clubs do not have a rich history, facing off for the first time back in 2014. As a result, it comes as little surprise that the Blaugrana boast a near-perfect record against their opponents, outscoring them by 36 goals to six.

Team news

Despite only completing his move to the Camp Nou on Thursday, Martin Braithwaite finds himself in the squad for Barcelona’s clash with Eibar. The emergency signing from Leganes has trained with his new team-mates and will likely start on the bench, offering Setien options in attack.

Ansu Fati and Antoine Griezmann join Lionel Messi on the squad list. The Argentine superstar is looking to end his goalscoring drought in the league, going four straight games without finding the net – this is a drought by Messi’s standards.

Only 18 players were chosen for this game, with Jordi Alba joining Suarez and Dembele on the sidelines. Sergio Akieme joins Fati as another Barca B player to be called up.
