Despite all the issues they are going through, the Catalans are still one of the best teams in the world, and they are definitely the favorites against the struggling Getafe this Sunday at the Nou Camp.
Ronald Koeman’s men had finished third in the table the last season, and it was the second straight season where they failed to lift the title. For a club of their stature, a third season on the trot without the crown would be quite worrisome.
The team is still finding its rhythm after their talisman left this summer, and this upcoming match-up against a minnow will be a great opportunity to deliver a confidence-boosting win.
Meanwhile, Getafe had finished 15th in a table of 20 the last season, and they had a surplus of just four points over the cut-off. Importantly, they also have a poor h2h record against this rival over the years.
译文(自动翻译仅供参考):
尽管他们经历了所有的问题,加泰罗尼亚仍然是世界上最好的球队之一,他们绝对是周日在诺坎普迎战艰难的赫塔菲的热门球队。
上个赛季,罗纳德·科曼率领的男足在积分榜上排名第三,这是他们连续第二个赛季未能夺冠。对于像他们这样的俱乐部来说,第三个赛季没有夺冠将是相当令人担忧的。
在他们的护身符今夏离开后,球队仍然在寻找它的节奏,而即将到来的对一条小鱼的比赛将是一个很好的机会,提供信心的胜利。
与此同时,赫塔菲在上个赛季的20强中排名第15,他们只比分值多4分。重要的是,多年来他们在h2h方面的记录也很糟糕。
