On Saturday, Barcelona will bid farewell to their manager of the last three seasons. Luis Enrique will take charge of the Blaugrana for the final game when they lock horns with Deportivo Alaves in the Copa del Rey final.
The Catalan giants will make the trip to the Vicente Calderon for the ultimate showdown, with the players eager to win this title. Not only will it be their only silverware of the season, it will be a befitting goodbye present for a manager who has done well at Camp Nou up until the last season.
Will Messi and Co. triumph over the weekend? Here are three stats pointing to victory for Barcelona.
Barca’s head-to-head record vs Alaves
In their first meeting of the season, Deportivo Alaves shocked Barcelona by winning 2-1 at Camp Nou. Even Real Madrid couldn’t beat the Blaugrana away.
However, the head-to-head record still favors Enrique’s side. That loss was their only defeat against El Glorioso (W6, D2).
They’ve met in the Copa del Rey before
They have met twice in the cup in 2012 and 2007. The Catalan giants won both legs in both of their match-ups, scoring 11 and conceding three.
Messi and Co. can’t stop winning in the Copa del Rey
Barcelona are undefeated in 25 of their last 26 cup games. This is made even more impressive by the fact that Enrique won back-to-back titles in his first two seasons, and could complete the hat-trick on Saturday
