Barcelona, led by its new German coach Hansi Flick, seems to be in an ideal position to take revenge on its Catalan neighbor Girona, when it visits it tomorrow, Sunday, in the fifth round of the Spanish Football League.
Barcelona have made a perfect start under Flick, winning all four of their opening games, leaving them alone at the top, four points ahead of title-holders Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and Villarreal, and five ahead of their neighbours Girona (fifth). All the conditions seem right for Barcelona to take revenge on their neighbours, who beat them twice last season by the same scoreline of 4-2, when the Blaugrana were led by Xavi Hernandez. In only their fourth season in the top flight, Girona finished third behind Barcelona and Real Madrid and secured a place in the Champions League. Throughout the season, they were Madrid’s toughest rivals in the title race. But a lot has changed between yesterday and today, as Flick has brought about a qualitative shift in Barcelona’s results under the leadership of the young Lamine Jamal, new signing Dani Olmo and veteran Polish striker Robert Lewandowski.
