Barca may get back a former player
Barcelona may look towards its former player after the injury of Alexis Vidal who will be out of the game adviced by fixfootballpicks until the end of the season because of a broken ankle.
According to the Spanish press, the Catalans can make an attempt to take Martin Caceres, who is a free agent and was considered a sure player for Southampton but he has not yet signed the treaty.
The coach Luis Enrique wants to have an experienced player at the position and Caceres could do the job. Although he played more as a central defender, he can also act as a final, which makes it a good option.
The Uruguayan footballer used to play at Barca in the period 2008-2011, and now more than a year he has had no official match after recovering from a serious injury because of which he was released from Juventus.
The other options for the position are also experienced players like Maicon who was recently released from Roma or Jose Bosingwa. Barca, however, can get back and Douglas, who was sent to play on a loan at Sporting Gijon.

Ancelotti is not going to stop Badstuber if he wants to leave
The head coach of Bayern Munich Carlo Ancelotti won`t stop a possible divestment of the defender Holger Badstuber in the spring half-season.
`If he decides to stay, then we will be satisfied. If he decides to play for another club predicted by rugby predictions in the next six months, then we are open for negotiations.`, said Ancelotti.
Badstuber, 27 years old, has played for Bayern since 2002, but he has been often haunted by injuries since 2012, when for the first time, he snapped cruciate ligament. This season the defender has played in only three games for the Bavarians, which led him to think about a new club predicted by rugby predictions where to get more playing time. There is an interest in the player from Hamburger and Stuttgart.
Ancelotti said that Badstuber has been in a good shape since the beginning of camp, which will run until Jan. 11. The coach determined the winter preparation in Qatar as particularly important for the attack on the treble this season.
The Bavarians lead in the standings of the Bundesliga with three points in front of Leipzig and the semifinals of the Cup and Germany in the Champions League.
`During the first half-season, we could go wrong somewhere, but in the second half of the season we don`t get errors.`, said Ancelotti.

Football Picks - 16.12.2016
Hoffenheim vs. Borussia Dortmund
Hoffenheim has proven to be a very tough team to beat. In fact, not a single team failed to beat Hoffenheim in this campaign - neither Bayern Munich nor the provisional leader RB Leipzig. The results of the matches of two teams from the previous seasons also bring hope to our hosts that they will not lose. The hosts have had only one loss in their past six games at home against the `Black-Yellow`. Our soccer prediction is double chance 1X.
Alaves vs. Real Betis
A lot of clashes between the two teams leveled with equal scores. Hardly anyone can give an advantage to one or the other team, we rather believe that both teams will make a peaceful draw. Our football forecast is X.
Hamilton Academical vs. Rangers
The Rangers probably still hasn`t regained the level they need to compete with Celtic, but still compared to the other teams in Scotland they are the better. The guests have had four wins in their last five games and occupy the second place in the ranking. The hosts have had only one win in the past thirteen rounds, and six losses in their last seven meetings with Rangers. Our football prediction is 2.
Willem II vs. SC Heerenveen
It will be probably a tough game analyzed by cricket predictions for the guests, but still they are quite the better team and we expect to win the three points. SC Heerenveen are the fourth in the table, while Willem II is on the 13th position with only two points away from the relegation zone. The odds for the guests is good enough to make it worth to bet on them. Our soccer forecast is 2.
