Barcelona have the chance to restore their place at the summit of La Liga on Saturday when they host Catalan rivals Girona.
With Real Madrid not in action against Getafe until Sunday, victory for Barça against Girona will see them leapfrog their fierce adversaries ahead of next weekend’s Clásico. However, they must bounce back from disappointing defeats against Sevilla and Paris Saint-Germain to claim maximum points at Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys.
