Barcelona, Spain – Na today wey dem dey ginger for Camp Nou as Barcelona go finally return to their famous stadium after 2.5 years of chilling at Estadi Olímpic. The last time wey dem play for Camp Nou na before dem start serious renovations wey cause wahala for plenty matches. Today, dem go face Athletic Bilbao, wey be one of dem biggest fears.
This match dey set for Saturday, November 22, 2025, at 4:15 PM local time (15:15 GMT). You fit believe say only 45,401 fans go dey ground because the renovations never complete. The stadium go dey chop for 105,000 when everything finish, but for now, na just small crowd we go see.
Barcelona dey hot on top table and if dem fit win, dem go top La Liga (even if na for small time) as dem dey chase Real Madrid wey dey lead. Dem drop 1-0 last week na Real Oviedo; so we go see if dem fit keep that momentum alive against the Pichichi.
On the other hand, Athletic Bilbao dey chill at seventh position with 17 points after their last win just help them dodge wahala of four straight losses. Dem gatz step up their game today, as dem don play Barcelona 244 times before, but Barcelona don win 124 of those matches.
Na double wahala for Bilbao as the players wey dey fit cause trouble for them be Lamine Yamal and Robert Lewandowski, wey don dey fire as usual. Flick, the coach for Barca, don talk say playing for Camp Nou go give dem serious confidence and dem dey ready to show how dem dominate for home.
As injury dey cause kasala for both teams, Sevilla don use plenty strong players, and we hope say Raphinha go fit join dem for bench after im recover from hamstring wahala. While Bilbao dey come without struggling star striker Inaki Williams wey dey on injury list, dem involve Gorka Guruzeta and returnee Nico Williams wey dey always create drama.
So, as we dey wait for time to kick off, wetin person go suppose expect sabi? Na serious scorefest, as both teams fit bring the heat. We dey look forward to see if Barcelona go fit run riot for their first match back home after moody months.
