LEG vs BAR Dream11 Match Prediction

 

LEG vs BAR Dream11: Reigning champions and the current leaders Barcelona travel to take on bottom-rooted Leganes in La Liga this weekend. The home side is struggling in every sense, while Barca are currently enjoying the view from the top of the table. Who will come out on top?


Leganes brace themselves for a difficult season:

The current 2019-20 campaign is Leganes’ fourth consecutive season at the top tier of Spanish football. Considering the club has never been in La Liga before earning the promotion back in 2016, taking also in consideration, the budget, and the profile of the stadium, this period from 2016-17 to the current one, without a shadow of any doubt, is the best in this club’s history. The tipping point of every effort made by the players and the club as a whole, the icing on the cherry, came last season when this tiny club from Madrid finished at a remarkable 13th place to cap the highest ever position in its history. That was its golden perch.

Now in the current context, the worst possible nightmare is threatening to become a reality, as they prop up the table having won just once in the first 13 league games. The next game has everything to make the situation even more grave as they face Barcelona, and the defeat could leave them seven points adrift of safety. That’s a huge gap.


Strange season indeed!

Barca are averaging just shade over two points per game this season, and have already lost three times in the first 12 league games. Still, the Catalan giants sit at the very summit in La Liga, which is an indication of how top teams like Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid have struggled in the early going.
