Storylines

Barca: This would normally be a walk in the park for Barca, but they've been inconsistent this season and will also not have Lionel Messi who is set to begin serving a two match suspension. So, anything can happen. Barca's defense has conceded in three of their last four league clashes. As long as the backline can limit mistakes and not get caught watching attackers as they so often do, they'll be more than set up to take all three points from Elche.
