Barcelona will field their strongest team in a bid to dampen any hopes of a Real Sociedad comeback in the Copa del Rey, when they host Real Sociedad Wednesday night tonight.
Barcelona made it a three-way tie on 57 points at the top of the Primera Division on Sunday as they won 4-1 at Sevilla and will be hoping to continue their momentum tonight by booking the last place in the 2014 Copa del Rey final.
As for Real Sociedad, they need to improve their attitude, their urgency and their composure in front of goal if they want to stand a chance at an unlikely comeback, and based on their goalless draw against Levante at the weekend, Sociedad continue to struggle in the same areas.
LIKELY LINE-UPS
Barcelona (4-3-3): Pinto; Alves, Bartra, Mascherano, Alba; Busquets, Roberto, Fàbregas; Pedro, Messi, Tello
Real Sociedad (4-2-3-1): Zubikarai; Zaldua, Mikel, Ansotegi, Angel; Elustondo, Zurutuza; Prieto, Pardo, Castro; Vela
And what dou think will be the outcome tonight? Well other than an unexpected setback, Barcelona is likely to dominate Real Sociedad by at least 2-3 clear goals.
It may be added that the winner of Wednesday's game will set up a meeting with either Real or Atletico in the final on April 19.
The Spain - Copa del Rey match is scheduled to be played between Barcelona and Real Sociedad on Wednesday, 12 February, 2014 at 21:00 GMT.
