From the source
Barcelona have another massive week ahead of them, both in La Liga and the UEFA Champions League, and they cannot afford to get it wrong this time around.
The Catalans faced an unexpected slump last week as they crashed to back-to-back defeats against PSG and Real Madrid. They returned to winning ways last night, putting six goals past Deportivo Alaves.
However, it is clear that there is a need to step up in the big games, and they will have a chance to do that in the coming week when they face Aston Villa and Atletico Madrid.
