Mar 10th features a match where Barcelona will play host to Galatasaray in a meeting of these two Europa League teams. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 11 degrees, which will be a great treat for players. Barcelona is fresh off their 2-1 win against Elche. Fidel scored the first goal for Elche in the 44th minute, then Ferrán Torres tied it up for Barcelona in the 60th minute But luckily in the 84th minute, they were able to complete the comback with a penalty goal by Memphis Depay. Barcelona is on a hot streak lately, with 7 wins in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, Galatasaray recorded a 0-2 loss against Konyaspor. Koka struck first for Konyaspor in the 8th minute on a feed from Zymer Bytyqi, then Amar Rahmanović added another in the 20th minute In the end, Galatasaray was frustrated by Konyaspor’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Konyaspor ended the match with the shutout victory. Galatasaray is looking for direction having 3 win and 5 losses in their last 10 matches.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season, so it will be interesting how the match turns out.
Galatasaray’s top weapon lately has been Bafetimbi Gomis, who has 3 goals in the last five matches. Barcelona is glad to have Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in top form. In the last 5 matches the attacker has scored four goals.
