JAKARTA - This week, Barcelona is facing a tough schedule. After successfully passing the first test by defeating Sevilla 5-1 on Monday, October 21, 2024, they will meet Bayern Munich and Real Madrid.
The Blaugrana managed to maintain the top of the standings after overthrowing Sevilla in the 10th week of La Liga 2024/2025. They kept their distance from Real Madrid's pursuit, which was only three points apart.
However, the party against Sevilla at home was the start of Barcelona's tough journey this week. Hansi Flick's team then met their opponents without playing games.
They will have Bayern Munich's arrival in the Champions League on Thursday, October 24, 2024, early morning WIB. Three days later, Barca had to appear at El Clasico at Real Madrid headquarters.

However, Hansi Flick as Barcelona manager was not afraid to face the tough schedule.
The German coach is ready to face any serious schedule considering his squad is starting to complete.
Upon Gavi's return from injury for 11 months raised Flick's optimism. Not to mention Barcelona's lineup of young players who are cheating.
"For us, every game is important. Not only against big clubs, but also Sevilla (match) is very important after the international break."
"We got up with a win (after the defeat against Osasuna in the eighth week of La Liga). The players did well," Flick said.
Barcelona are currently on track for three consecutive wins in all competitions after losing to Osasuna.
Players such as Pablo Torre began to gain trust. He even contributed two goals in the win against Sevilla.
Stanis Idumbo is also a sign of the depth of the Barca squad. In addition, there are other young players such as Fermin Lopez who have returned from injury.
Frenkie de Jong and Dani Olmo are fit enough to face tough matches against Munich and Real Madrid.
"They are ready, they will be ready. This is for me, our job is to prepare well for the next game."
"Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, no problem. The team will give 100 percent every game, every minute, they will be ready," said Flick again.
The experience of Robert Lewandowski as a senior player in the team also has an effect. He was able to carry out the task of leading young players when Marc Andre ter Stegen, Ferran Torres, Andreas Christensen, and Ronald Araujo were still absent.
