After two weeks without a match, FC Barcelona will take to the field for the second time in less than 72 hours as they prepare to host UD Almeria at the Camp Nou in their first midweek La Liga fixture for nigh on seven months. That wasn't exactly a pleasant experience for the Blaugrana, who slumped to a goalless draw away to another Andalusian outfit, Malaga CF -- although hopefully, things will be better this time.
Certainly, the calibre of opposition is entirely different. Malaga are challenging for a UEFA Europa League qualification berth while UD Almeria are fighting just to stay in the division. Their 1-4 defeat against Levante at the weekend has left them teetering in a precarious position as they occupy the final place in the relegation zone; a win could see them move further adrift of safety, depending on the result of today's clash between Deportivo La Coruna and Cordoba, a match that actually kicks off alongside our game tonight.
Can they upset the odds against the mighty FC Barcelona? We'll find out later tonight.
