After a painful El Clásico defeat to end their defense of the La Liga title last weekend, Barcelona now focus on securing second place when they welcome Valencia to the Montjuïc Olympic Stadium for a rare Monday night game.
The full week of rest and training brought big news off the pitch as Xavi Hernández reversed his decision to leave in the summer and will remain the first team manager next season, and his job now is to ensure Barça finish above Girona in the table to earn extra prize money that will help the coach shape the squad in his image for the 2024-25 campaign.
