How will Barcelona line up against Espanyol in a big La Liga derby?

After a full week to rest, recover and prepare after last weekend’s brilliant El Clásico win, Barcelona are back in action to start another busy week as they face local rivals Espanyol at the Montjuïc Olympic Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

Barça can go nine points clear of Real Madrid, who don’t play this weekend, and establish a clear gap at the top of the table in La Liga before two huge road games against Red Star Belgrade in the Champions League and away to Real Sociedad in the annual trip to hell, also known as Anoeta.
