WELCOME TO THE MONTJUÏC OLYMPIC STADIUM!!! The beautiful temporary home of the world’s greatest football club in the capital of Catalonia is the site of an important The League match between visitors Leganés and Barcelona, who come into this one looking to return to winning ways in the league and maintain their spot at the top of the table. They will be favorites at home against a relegation candidate, but Leganés have caused the big teams some trouble this season and will look to shock the world and leave Catalonia with a famous result. This should be fun, and you’re welcome to join us to follow and comment all the action. Let’s go!

Matchday Thread Rules
We don’t have a lot of rules here, but there are a few things to keep in mind when joining our matchday threads:
Even if the referee sucks or we lose the game, watch the swearing. It’s just unnecessary. Also, don’t discuss illegal streaming links. Those who do it will be warned, and those who post links will be instantly banned. Finally, be nice to each other. This is a Barcelona community and we don’t need to offend one another.
Have fun with the game! Forever and ever, no matter the competition, VISCA EL BARÇA!
