Barcelona will travel away to Villarreal in La Liga and try to secure all three points to secure their position at the top of the table.
Villarreal come into this fixture on the back of two consecutive defeats against Elche and Rayo Vallecano. The Yellow Submarine is currently placed eighth in the table with 31 points from 20 games and will be hoping to break the bad run of form. Although their record against Barcelona doesn't incite much confidence, with the team in yellow winning just one of the previous 27 league games against the Blaugranas.
Barcelona arrive to La Ceramica in rich vein of form, winning their last seven games in all competitions while keeping a cleansheet in five of them. Xavi's men dominated Sevilla in their previous league game and are currently sat at the top of the table with 53 points from 20 games, eight more than second placed Real Madrid.
