How do the leading European websites predict the result of Viktoria Plzeň vs. FC Barcelona?

Viktoria Plzeň will play their last game in the Champions League. They will face Barcelona at home, but neither team has anything to play for. The Catalans are clearly falling into the Europa League, Plzeň will surely be the last. But what result do European websites that focus on analysis and previews expect?

Before the season, Plzen probably didn’t even dream of making it to the Champions League. In the end, it climbed among the elite despite the pre-season pitfalls and was rewarded with a group full of giants. Bayern Munich, Barcelona and Inter Milan.

But the excitement of the big games was quickly replaced by criticism for timid performances and big allocations. Pilsen lost 1::5 at Camp Nou, 0::2 at home to Inter Milan, 0::5 to Bayern and 2::4 to Inter in the return leg.

At the moment, Viktoria is attacking the worst team in the Champions League. The worst team so far is Dinamo Zagreb, who left the 2011/12 season without a point and with a score of -19. Viktoria currently has a score of -17, if they lose by three goals, the sad record will be theirs. They are still fighting Rangers, who have a score of -18.

Barcelona arrive in the west of Bohemia also in a very bad cup situation. Like Plzeň, it has been relatively successful in the league, but a fiasco in the Champions League.

Two defeats to Bayern, a defeat and a draw to Inter and a single win over Plzeň have condemned it to the Europa League. The Catalans already knew this before the Bayern game, so they are playing the last two games out of obligation.

In addition, the injured Robert Lewandowski, Jules Koundé and Eric García will not come to the Czech Republic and captain Sergio Busquets will not play due to his cards. It can be expected that coach Xavi will give space to youngsters and rotate the squad a lot.

Despite the changed squad, Barcelona’s substitutes have such quality that they can be expected to beat Plzen without any problems. In fact, they have extra motivation, in case of a loss they would face a lot of ridicule.
