Barcelona’s offense got back on track against Viktoria Plzeň during their Champions League fixture on Tuesday.
However, Barça did concede two goals in the contest, which has been their Achilles heel in the UCL this season. Their defense in La Liga though has been stellar as they notched another clean sheet victory against Valencia last weekend.

Barcelona vs Almería Prediction
Barcelona 4-0 Almería
The Blaugrana should convincingly win at Camp Nou this weekend against the visitors. This is the second to last La Liga match before the World Cup hiatus so they will want to go into the break with momentum.
Xavi was able to rotate his lineup in the mid-week and give Robert Lewandowski a much-needed rest so he will be fresh and ready to go for this contest. Ferran Torres also scored twice which is a huge boost to his personal confidence as he had been struggling off the bench.
The Catalans only trail Real Madrid by one point in the league table but are tied with the Madridistas with 10 wins on the season. With the Champions League no longer in their future, Barcelona will be focused on winning the La Liga title this year.
