After seeing Real Madrid C.F lift the UCL for three consecutive seasons the Catalans would definitely like to bring the European Cup to Camp Nou this season. FC Barcelona have now put behind their sloppy performances and now sit on top of La Liga points table after 11 game weeks, thrashing Real Madrid 5-1 at Camp Nou last week to go on top.

Barcelona drew a tough group after being tied up with Tottenham Hotspurs, Inter Milan and PSV Eindhoven in group B of the UEFA Champions League. Barcelona have so far eased past all of them securing a perfect 9 out of 9 points leading the group table and look all set to book their place in the round of 16.

Barcelona look stronger after re-enforcing the squad with Coutinho (could not play UCL football last season), Arturo Vidal, Lenglet, Arthur and Malcom. With the recent performances, one can say that Barcelona are the favourites this season and Messi even went on to say the team will look to win the trophy after last year's disaster.
