Two different worlds, but one shirt

Barcelona and Eibar, two teams facing each other this Saturday in the Spanish league, have something important in common; they both wear the same coloured shirt. Apart from that, the two clubs are on a completely different planet from each other.

Budget
Barcelona: €550 million is Barcelona's budget for the year
Eibar: €18 million is what Eibar has set aside for 2014-15

Season tickets:
Barcelona: The team's most expensive season ticket is around €1,000. This includes access to 'La Liga', Champions League and 'Copa del Rey' games – the 'Supercopa' is extra.
Eibar: Season tickets range from €209 to €297. The Ipurúa stadium holds 5,250 spectators.

Shirts:
Barcelona: The team sells the third most shirts in the world. Nike manages to shift some 1,150,000 units per year.
Eibar: The club has sold some 1,000 Hummel shirts. There's a waiting list to buy kit.

Facilities:
Barcelona: A sports complex with every feature imaginable. It has 5 pitches with natural grass and four artificial pitches.
Eibar: A training pitch with artificial grass. This pitch is annexed to the Ipurúa stadium and is not regulation size.

B-team:
Barcelona: Barcelona B supplies the first team. Sandro and Munir are the latest to make the 'step up'.
Eibar: The club had to disband its B-team when it was in 'Segunda B'. The zero deficit policy meant it was obliged to take this decision.

Youth setup:
Barcelona: 18 teams constitute the grassroots football at La Masia. The minimum age for joining the team is just six.
Eibar: The Basque side has 10 youth teams, with U-11 being the youngest.
