Viktoria had to claw their way into the millionaire competition through three preliminary rounds, successively knocking out HJK Helsinki, Sheriff Tiraspol and Karabakh. They have 5 wins and 1 draw.
Barcelona had nothing to worry about, they qualified for the Champions League from second place in La Liga. Back in January, they were still in ninth place in the table and their participation in the cups was in danger, but they finally made it to the most prestigious competition after their improved results.
And it has a lot to make up for. Last year, they finished third in a group with Bayern Munich, Benfica Lisbon and Dynamo Kiev and had to settle for the Europa League in the spring.
Viktoria is returning to the cups after two years. It will play the Champions League again after four years, in 2018 it tormented Real Madrid on its field and lost in the end 1: 2. Michal Bilek’s charges would take at least a similar performance and game display this time.
Plzeň has already played at Camp Nou, losing 0:2 in 2011. It managed at least a partial success, defending Lionel Messi, who did not score, the win was decided by Andrés Iniesta and David Villa.
Barcelona have strengthened their defensive game compared to last season and are no longer making the schoolboy mistakes that led to unnecessary goals conceded. In four rounds of La Liga, they have only conceded once, the defence has been lifted a lot by Jules Kounde, and Ronald Araujo is also playing well. At the same time, the Blaugranas are thriving in attack, having already scored 11 goals.
However, Michal Bílek’s charges are very experienced, the starting line-up is in good shape and it looks like they don’t want to miss the Champions League at any cost, as they are playing for the future of the club.
