Barcelona return to league action against Celta Vigo, looking to put their exit from the Champions League behind them. Despite beating Atletico Madrid 2-1, they still exited on an aggregate score of 3-2. Now back in La Liga action, they sit nine points ahead of Real Madrid with seven games to go and face a Celta Vigo side looking to try and consolidate their position in the European places.
Celta are sixth, two points behind Real Betis in fifth and two points ahead of Real Sociedad in seventh. There is still a possibility that they can qualify for the Europa League, but they will have to return to winning ways if they want to maintain their current position.
