The countdown is on to the second Barcelona Derby of the season. For Barça, victory would guarantee the league title. For Espanyol, a win would secure another year of top flight football.

So, it's a big game for both rival clubs, but the day before there were nothing but pleasantries as the respective managers, Hansi Flick and Manolo González, got together for the traditional pre-game photo at the RCDE Stadium, where tomorrow's game will be played. Mutually respectful, as both men enjoyed a nice chat while the cameras clicked.

Final workout

Both Flick and Gonzalez had just completed their final training sessions and given press conferences before making their way to the Espanyol stadium for the photo shoot.
