Barcelona's Sergio Busquets expecting tough final game

Barcelona midfielder Sergio Busquets insists that "no-one will be more motivated" than his team during next weekend's La Liga clash with Granada.

Barcelona midfielder Sergio Busquets has insisted that his team will rise to the challenge of beating Granada next weekend.

The Catalan giants will travel to already-safe El Grana knowing that three points would secure the La Liga title, regardless of what Real Madrid manage away to Deportivo La Coruna.

Sunday's 5-0 victory over Espanyol ensured that Barcelona would remain in control of their own destiny, and Busquets has insisted that his team will be "motivated" to finish the job on the final matchday of the season.

"We have to win next week. You never know whether it's a good thing that Granada are now safe from the drop," Busquets told MoviStar Plus.

"We'll be confronting the match as we always do. Nothing's going to change because we have to win - we cannot slip up. It's not easy to win and next week's game against Granada is going to be difficult because they know they're not going down.

"They'll be keen to end the season with a home win in front of their people and celebrate that they're staying up. But no one will be more motivated than us on Saturday."

Barcelona have now won their last four in the league after a three-game losing run between April 2 and April 17.
