Barcelona is riding high on a Champions League win over PSG as it looks to continue some sterling form in La Liga away to Cadiz
A valiant comeback effort means Barcelona has a chance to temporarily move within five points of Real Madrid at La Liga’s summit on Saturday provided it can bag a fourth straight win against Cadiz. Xavi’s side has successfully won three in a row against this particular opponent and managed to keep a clean sheet on each occasion, but they’re making the trip to the Estadio Nuevo Mirandilla at an awkward time. That’s after relegation candidate Cadiz all of a sudden enjoyed a boost in form at home, beating both Atletico Madrid and Granada in each of its last two home games to suddenly improve its chances of top-flight survival.

The Yellow Submarine remains in the bottom three of La Liga as things stand, but Mauricio Pellegrino’s men are now just three points from safety after a sudden spike in productivity.
That surge has seen Cadiz lose just one of its last five outings and breathe some much-needed life into its campaign as it seeks to stave off a drop down to the second tier.
Two late goals from Pedri and Ferran Torres clinched all three points for the Blaugrana when they hosted Cadiz earlier this season when Barca appeared close to giving up some valuable points:
Barcelona is back in action just 72 hours after facing off against Paris Saint-Germain in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final clash, which ended 3-2 to the Catalans after a topsy-turvy 90 minutes.
It wasn’t long ago that Real looked to be in the clear and shoo-ins for La Liga’s crown, but Barca has propelled itself back into contention following a few months of proven progress.
The title-challenging days of old may not quite be back just yet, but three points at Cadiz this weekend could go a long way to restoring the belief Barcelona is capable of recapturing its former glories.
