Feyenoord's chances of beating Barcelona are slim, according to analyst Youri Mulder, who believes the Catalan side has strengthened significantly with the signings of Rodri, Anthony Gordon, and Karim Adeyemi. Mulder warns that Feyenoord must be cautious, as Valencia's failure to defend against Barcelona's midfield is a concern.
Mulder also notes that Barcelona's 5-0 win over Valencia was a clear indication of their strength, and that Feyenoord must not play like Valencia did. He suggests that Giovanni van Bronckhorst should focus on speed and long balls, rather than trying to play a possession-based game.
