Spain La LigaStadium: Camp Nou (Barcelona)
With a nine point advantage over Atletico Madrid, Barcelona welcomes Getafe to the Nou Camp on Sunday.
From their previous nine meetings at the Nou Camp, Barcelona has defeated Getafe seven times, while drawing just two of those matches. Sunday should give Tito Vilanova's side another chance to keep Barcelona's 16 point lead over Real Madrid who defeated Sevilla on Saturday, cutting the lead to 13 points.
The previous meeting between these two sides ended with a 1-4 victory for Barcelona. Adriano opened the scoring with a 32nd minute goal, making way for Lionel Messi to score two goals, before Getafe would pull one back with Mascherano scoring an own goal.
David Villa, Arsenal transfer target, made it 1-4 with a 92nd minute goal, giving the Blaugrana the full three points.
Luis Garcia's side has only managed one win in their previous ten matches, but Barcelona has not done so well as of late themselves. Tito Vilanova's side has only managed two victories in their previous six in all competitions.
Barcelona will be without Xavi on Sunday, with the Spanish international recovering from a hamstring injury. Jordi Roura may also choose to rest a few other players, considering their upcoming match against AC Milan in the UEFA Champions League.
