Pre-match comments Club Brugge vs Barca
Barca showed a strong resilience after the defeat in El Clasico with a 3-1 win over Elche to move second in La Liga, 5 points behind Real. Now, Hansi Flick's team will turn their attention to the Champions League with the goal of winning all 3 points in matchday 4. Similarly in La Liga, they also responded to the defeat to PSG with a resounding 6-1 victory over Olympiacos.
With ambitions of winning the European Championship, Barca need a good position in the qualifying round. The current 9th position certainly does not satisfy them. That is why Lamine Yamal and his teammates need to take advantage of opponents like Club Brugge to accumulate maximum points because the next round will have to face Chelsea.
Club Brugge are quite similar to Barca domestically, having just won 2-1 against Dender to move up to second place, 3 points behind leaders Union SG. In the Champions League, the Belgian team is aiming for a place in the play-off round but the current situation is quite difficult. After beating Monaco 4-1 at home, they lost consecutively to Atalanta and Bayern to drop to 20th. They may fall even further after the match with Barca.
