Barcelona won twice in their last three matches as FC Porto were defeated by 2-1, before they beat Atletico Madrid 1-0. Girona proved too strong, though, and a 2-4 defeat followed. Barcelona claimed two wins against zero draws and four defeats in their last six away matches in the Champions League. The scoreline from these matches reads nine goals conceded and five scored.
