PREVIEW: PREMIERSHIP

Barca look ahead

League leaders Barcelona's confidence was severely jolted by losing 42 at bitter rivals Real Madrid in the Santiago Bernabeu last weekend but they are bidding to bounce against Getafe on Sunday.
The Catalans still top the Spanish first division by six points from Real but this week there has been long faces and serious expressions on the training field in Barcelona, rather than the jovial atmosphere of recent months.
Losing at Real has reminded Barca fans of the 1981-82 season, when they had a five point lead with seven games to go but collapsed down the home straight and were pipped at the post by Real Sociedad.
Barcelona coach Frank Rijkaard made his feelings about the situation abundantly clear this week.
"There are some players who, perhaps think they are already cham-
pions. They should be a bit more humble and keep concentrating," said the Dutch coach.
" We've got to put the match against Real out of our minds and concentrate on winning all the rest of the games," said Barcelona superstar Ronaldinho, the World Player of the Year.
Perhaps part of the reason for Barcelona's decline in form during the second half of the season, despite being in pole position, has been the fact that Rijkaard has rarely been able to field the same back four.
His latest set back is the suspension of club captain Carles Puyol and Brazilian wing back Belletti against Getafe, who have won only one away game all season.
Rijkaard will also be without the Spanish first division's top scorer Samuel Eto'o, who injured his right knee against Real and will be out for another week.
With Swedish striker Henrik Larsson still injured, Ronaldinho is likely to be pushed into an unfamiliar role of being the main target man
rather than the principal service provider.
Real Madrid have been on a high since last Sunday's marvellous victory, when they produced some of their best football of the season.
They will be looking to keep up the pressure on Barca with a good performance against struggling Levante, who they thrashed 5-0 in the Bernabeu earlier this season.
