Villareal vs Barca Preview
 |
| David Villa against Villareal |
As I said in my last post, this is going to be the most vital game of this season. Its all about not conceding any ground to Real Madrid before meeting them at their home in two weeks time. Lionel Messi was a serious doubt for this fixture when I wrote the last post, but luckily our worst fears were removed when the club doctor's ruled out any injury to Messi. Now most probably he will play in this match but we still will be missing Xavi, who is suspended for this match. Bojan Krkic who had an injury scare while playing for Spanish U-21 side has recovered, but we still have major absentees in the defense namely Abidal and Puyol.

Taking Stock after the International Break

| Iniesta in Action Against Villareal |
Ok, finally it was ruled today that this weekend's fixture of La Liga will go ahead as planned. I have to admit that I was praying for this weekend's fixture to be called off. But now that's the judge's decision, we have to face Villareal on Saturday. We always struggle coming from an international break and this fixture has more issues to deal with other than that. There is a growing list of injuries which have to be dealt with . Boja Krkic, who suddenly found some form has suffered a sprained ankle while playing for Spain's U-21 team. He has not been ruled out for the Saturday's match but everything will depend on how he makes the progress in coming days. Lionel Messi is the latest to be added in the injury list, eventhough its not yet clear about the extent of his injury. The Argentinian coaching staff has denied that he is injured but there is some issues which kept him out of the goalless draw against Costa Rica.
