Quotes
“It was a very good match in general. We should have scored two or three more goals. We were bad in defence," Barcelona manager Xavi Hernandez said after their win over Villarreal.
“After the 0-2, we conceded a lot of chances. Our mistakes cost us. After the 3-2, we started playing good football. The result in the end was fair, we deserved more goals,”
“The substitutions were key. We have to dominate the 90 minutes, that’s our goal. But when you face teams like Villarreal, that’s very tough. The attitude we had in the second half is the way to go.”
Head-to-Head
Barcelona beat Osasuna 1-0 in their last meeting in La Liga with the match taking place at the Spotify Camp Nou on 2 May 2023.
As a result, Barca are undefeated in their last six league matches against Los Rojillos having recorded five wins and one draw.
