LEO EYES ANOTHER FEAT

Lionel Messi continues his quest to become the all-time leading goalscorer in La Liga just days after equalling a similar feat in the Champions League when Barcelona visit Almeria on Saturday.

The Argentine is just one goal short of the 251 goals Telmo Zarra scored for Athletic Bilbao between 1940 and 1955, but has been kept scoreless in his last La Liga outings. That downturn in form has coincided with Luis Suarez’s introduction to the side after serving his fourmonth ban.
