Luis Enrique frustrated by Espanyol derby scheduling

Luis Enrique voices his frustrations at the lack of preparation his side will have when they come up against Paris Saint-Germain, 72 hours after the derby with Espanyol.

Barcelona boss Luis Enrique has voiced his frustration over the scheduling of this Sunday's derby with Espanyol.

The fixture only leaves two days preparation for Barca's Champions League encounter with Paris Saint-Germain, with the game deciding who tops Group F and seeding in the last-16 draw.

Despite the Catalans having already qualified for the knockout stages, Enrique has admitted his annoyance that the LFP decided for the match to go ahead this weekend.

"We can't do anything [about the schedule]," the 44-year-old told reporters. "TV decides; they are the people who pay."

PSG will travel to the Camp Nou on Wednesday to play out their final group game with Barca.
