It's back home for FC Barcelona, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Levante away with the result 3-2. Pedri, Aubameyang and de Jong found the net in that victory. The victory against Levante came after de Jong's winning goal. The Barcelona manager Xavi was very happy afterwards with the decision to bring on that player in the 84th minute.

Dembélé served one assist, hit three key passes, dribled past the opponent 5 of 5 times and had 50 successful passes (of 55 total).

The UEFA Europa League, abbreviated as UEL and commonly referred to as just the Europa League, is an annual football club competition organised by UEFA. It is the second-tier competition for football clubs in Europa, beneath the UEFA Champions League in value and importance. Teams qualify through their performance in their national leagues and cup competitions. Some teams qualify from the Champions League; more precisely the teams who are knocked out in the playoff qualifying round and the third-place finishers of the group stage. The winner of the Europa League qualifies for the Champions League in their next competitive season.
