Felix has scored eight goals in all competitions for Xavi바카라s side, including the winner against Atletico in Barca바카라s home fixture in December, since arriving on a season-long loan.
Xavi told a press conference: 바카라He likes fiery atmospheres to show his worth. Joao has a strong personality. He is not afraid and really wants to show what he can do and his character.
바카라He has all he needs for a great performance, just like the one from earlier in the season (when Barca beat Atletico 1-0) 바카라 he바카라s super motivated.바카라
Atletico pair Antoine Griezmann and Memphis Depay are also hoping to face their former club in a game Xavi described as a 바카라vital one, like all the ones that remain because we need to pick up points in the league바카라.
Barca currently sit third in the table and are running out of chances to cut the sizeable gap to leaders Real Madrid.
Atletico, in fourth place, six points adrift of Barca, are unbeaten at home in the league in 14 matches this season.
Diego Simeone바카라s side bounced back from last Saturday바카라s 2-0 defeat at Cadiz by beating Inter Milan on penalties in midweek to reach the Champions League quarter-finals.
Xavi, whose side also progressed to the last eight of the Champions League in midweek after overcoming Napoli, added: 바카라The game is against a Champions League rival and they showed that the other day (against Inter). It will be a really tough away game and I think both sides are in good form.
바카라I바카라m sure it will be a great game and let바카라s hope we can pick up three points, although I don바카라t think they have lost at home in the league since we won there last season (January 2023).바카라
Xavi said he was hopeful both Marcos Alonso and Ferran Torres can recover from injury in time to feature in his squad.
