Barcelona vs Getafe - Enrique urges focus against Getafe

Barcelona boss Luis Enrique has warned against complacency as his side prepare to take on struggling Getafe in the Primera Division on Saturday.

Barca sit eight points clear of Atletico Madrid at the top of the table and are aiming for a 12th straight win in the league and a 37th consecutive match unbeaten in all competitions.

Enrique said at his pre-match press conference: "We are in the final stretch of the season against opponents who need points.

"At the moment, we are only thinking about three points against Getafe, which will leave us closer to our objective of winning the league.

"We know that we are where we wanted to be at the start of the season, but the most difficult part remains, which is to confirm our performances with titles.

"We have a clear advantage but we cannot afford to slip up because losing two matches could see us punished."

Barca will be without striker Sandro, who has been ruled out for between six and seven weeks with a thigh injury.

Getafe desperately need points at the other end of the table but go into the match buoyed by a draw against Sevilla last time out.

Striker Stefan Scepovic said on getafecf.com: "We will try to do what we can. We have games that have escaped us, where we deserved more, but against Sevilla it was possible and that was important.

"We know the difficulties of the match against Barcelona. It will be a very difficult game but maybe we can surprise them.

"They have gone many games without losing but we will not go just to be on the pitch. We know the game we will have to fight at Camp Nou."
