Luis Suarez, Barcelona

Watching Barcelona forward Luis Suarez is always fascinating. For long spells of matches, the Uruguayan looks uncoordinated and is so often profligate when chances fall his way. But the striker always conjures space, makes opportunities and, more often than not, finds the back of the net.
His performance in Barcelona’s win over Real Betis in the club's most recent outing summed him up. Suarez missed a couple of clear chances before tucking away a difficult opening following Lionel Messi’s delicate pass. Still, as Bleacher Report UK noted, he’s in stunning form:
Suarez, while superb all season, has found his best at a vital point. Barcelona were teetering after losing at home to Valencia in April, but the Uruguayan’s virtuoso efforts at the point of the attack have hauled them to three consecutive wins.

Games such as this one against Espanyol seem made for Suarez. While the 29-year-old may once have let his emotions get the better of him in these fervent occasions, he seems to get the balance right in these feisty matches since moving to La Liga in 2014. If the visitors are physical, that’s something the No. 9 will relish.
Goal’s Ben Hayward thinks the former Liverpool man is the best centre-forward in the game despite his erratic finishing:
"I honestly believe Luis Suárez is the world's best striker and his numbers this season back that up. But some of his misses are atrocious.
— Ben Hayward (@bghayward) April 30, 2016"
Expect Suarez to set the tempo against Espanyol, pressing from the front, hassling opponents in possession and geeing up the Camp Nou crowd. Meshing those gritty traits with his supreme predatory instincts will see him make the difference in another big win for the Blaugrana.
Antonio Sanabria, Sporting

Getafe’s strong recent run of form has given them an outside chance of beating the drop, as they’re deadlocked alongside Sporting—19th and 18th respectively—on 35 points each.
It’s in these games when quality players often make a massive difference, and in Antonio Sanabria, the visitors have an outstanding talent within their ranks. On loan from Roma, the attacker has been a bright spark for the club. Here is a look at some of his best moments from the campaign:
There have been times this season when the 20-year-old has dragged Sporting through matches, with his intelligence off the ball and class on it so evident.
Lately, Sanabria has gone off the boil slightly, netting just once in his last 12 appearances for the club. But manager Abelardo Fernandez will be expecting him to turn up in this crunch clash, one that could ultimately determine whether Gijon are playing top-flight football next season.

These numbers from Squawka Football show just how impressive the young man has been during the campaign as a whole, especially when compared to other players in his age group:
Since Juan Esnaider took over at Getafe in April, they’ve been in much stronger shape, taking seven points from a possible nine under his watch, meaning they’ll be a testing proposition for the visitors—especially with the backdrop of what's expected to be a full Coliseum Alfonso Perez.
Still, Gijon have the more talented squad on paper, and Sanabria is someone who could swing this one in their favour should things get tight.
