Barcelona got their title charge back on track with an important win over an in-form Atletico at the Camp Nou. After disappointing goalless draws against Getafe and Girona, it was important to win this game and that’s exactly what Barcelona did.
Xavi’s side were boosted by the return from injury of Frenkie de Jong and Pedri. The Dutchman was named in the starting XI for the match, while Pedri came on as a substitute in the second half at the Camp Nou.
