Time to Get the Revenge - Hercules vs Barca Preview

FC Barcelona will be looking for a perfect revenge in the match against Hercules

FC Barcelona will be travelling to Alicante for their La Liga engagement against Hercules CF. Nobody would have imagined this at the start of the campaign. Twenty match into this season, the only team which has managed to defeat this Barcelona side in the League was the newly promoted Hercules. Hercules played in the first division in the 1996-97 season last time and surprisingly they won both their encounters with FC Barcelona that season. Those defeat cost us the title to Real madrid that season. Barca will be making sure that a repeat of that does not happen this time around. Not only they will be making sure of that, but also would love to extract revenge for that minor blip at the very start of the season. But one thing is for sure, Madrid is very much expecting Hercules to do them a big favour. To make matters worse for the Capital side our flying right back, Dani Alves has been declared fit and has been included in the squad. The entire squad list is Valdés, Pinto, Alves, Adriano, Piqué, Milito, Fontàs, Abidal, Maxwell, Mascherano, Busquets, Keita, Xavi, Iniesta, Afellay, Messi, Villa, Pedro and Nolito.
