Barcelona (2nd, 54 pts)
- Los Azulgranas head into this encounter on something of a roll, having strung together four straight LaLiga Santander wins, even if not all of those were entirely convincing. Their latest victory came at none other than the Vicente Calderon, where they overcame Atletico Madrid 2-1.
- Lionel Messi has scored in nine of his last 10 LaLiga Santander appearances and has now reached 20 goals in the division for a staggering ninth consecutive season.

Sporting (18th, 17 pts)
- Rubi's men have only won one of their last five matches and really need to pick up some momentum if they are to pull themselves out of relegation trouble.
- The Asturians have lost eight times on their travels in the league this term and have only managed six points on the road, courtesy of three draws and a solitary victory. Mind you, that sole win came at CD Leganes on their last away trip.
