Barcelona Adjust Itinerary for Newcastle Clash

According to Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona will stay the Saturday night in Bilbao before jetting off to Newcastle on Sunday, rather than taking a detour back to Barcelona or opting for a connecting flight. The Catalans are expected to stay at Maften Hall Hotel, a tranquil resort with a spa and golf course located half an hour from Newcastle.

Barcelona will hold a training session on Monday afternoon at St. James' Park, followed by a press conference from coach Hansi Flick and an accompanying player. This comes after the team's close call against Atletico Madrid as they look to maintain their four-point lead at the top of the table.
