Sporting had a great start this season, but they have won only one game in their last six. The hosts were defeated 1-0 by Racing Santander in the19th round. Gijon had the most porous defence in the Primera Division last season, but they have conceded only 21 goals so far. Their strength is team spirit, but there is a big dependency on the goals of forward Barral. The key to the game is playing well in defence, because Barca will have more chances.  Barcelona went to the 1st place after they won El Clasico at Camp Nou. They are still unbeaten in ninteeen Primera Division games and are actually five points ahead of Real Madrid. The hosts are a team that strike fear into the hearts of all because they still produce spectacular football. They rarely give up a game as lost. When a team wins every competition they enter, the tendency is to want to be the same team the next season. Although they were knocked out from Copa del Rey, they look even stronger than the previous season  Barcelona will win by more than one goal…away win with hcp
