It's  going to be a great game, similar styles of playing  but different philosophies. First part of a 180 minute game, will, my prediction is either a tie  @ 0-0 or maybe 1-1, these both teams have came from winning by large finals in the previous stage, Lets see what happens when the ref blows the whistle and the games starts.. it's going to be great!

FC Barcelona vs Valencia

After tying with Almeria UD last weekend in La Liga, Barcelona now need to win this game and score more goals to get ahead of R. Madrid. While R. Madrid have been knocked out of the Champions League for the sixth succesive year, it means only that they can now focus on capturing the La Liga title 100%. Everyone agrees that Barca is not at it's best, and this was to be expected after a long season and also injuries. Out for the game due to suspension are Zlatan Ibrahimovic and als Coach Pep Guardiola. Will this affect the players? I don't think so, the players played a good game and i believe they know what needs to be done they know loosing and R. Madrid winning will put in the 2nd spot for sure. Valencia are comming of a tie in the UEFA Cup, also reports show that David Villa might miss the game but they wont know until last minute. While winning this Sunday would be great they also have to think about what's ahead of them Wednesday.

Valencia is going a tough team and Barcelona will need to show what they are truly made off to send a message to Madrid they are also in it to win it. This game is the one that separates the men from the boys. Game On!
