Barcelona – Athletic Club (Copa del Rey – Round of 16 – Second Leg)
January 11, 2017
Athletic Club is coming into this fixture with a 2-1 home victory over Barcelona from the first leg of this round. As long as they can keep the score level and abide by the away goal rules, Athletic Club should be looking to advance in the competition.
Looking at their place in the La Liga, this wouldn’t be the time for FC Barcelona to bow out of a domestic competition. Playing at home in this fixture should give a boost. If they can keep the back door shut and not concede a goal, Barcelona would just need to score a goal to kick out Athletic Club from the Copa del Rey
