"Barcelona's UEFA Champions League campaign so far has been nothing to boast of, for the Catalans languish in 15th place with just two games to go in the league stage. Of the six games they have played in the competition this season, they have lost two against elite European opposition going down against both Chelsea and PSG. Further, they took another massive blow when they failed to secure all three points against Club Brugge, giving away two points and falling further in the standings."
"Barcelona went on a winning run of 11 games immediately after losing to Chelsea in the competition back in November. However, that run came to an end last weekend when they lost to Real Sociedad. Despite the defeat, Barcelona have been in great form and have even won a trophy to add to their cabinet. Their opponents on the night, meanwhile, are still searching for their first win in Europe and have three draws and as many defeats in the competition this season."
Barcelona return to Champions League action against Slavia Prague with qualification hopes under pressure and two league-stage games remaining. Barcelona recorded an 11-game winning run after losing to Chelsea but that streak ended with a defeat to Real Sociedad. Barcelona have recently won a trophy and remain in strong domestic form despite setbacks in Europe. Slavia Prague have yet to win in Europe this season, registering three draws and three defeats. Barcelona have lost to Chelsea and PSG and dropped points against Club Brugge. A win over Prague is important but will not alone guarantee direct qualification.
