VALENCIA
Valencia have had a substandard beginning to their season and are currently sitting on 9th in the La Liga table with only 15 points from their first 11 matches. They host Barcelona in what will be a tough fixture, especially after having just lost 1-2 to Real Mallorca at the Estadio de Mestalla.
Valencia will want to avoid losing two home games in a row and their manager Gennaro Gattuso has come under scrutiny for not being able to get the team to play fluidly going forward. The Spanish team have also accumulated 31 yellow cards and 4 red cards in only 11 matches making them the most aggressive team in Spain.
Edinson Cavani was a great free agent signing in the summer transfer window and is proving to be their key forward. Justin Kluivert is also finding good form and Samuel Lino too has been consistent on the left front.
This is a very young Valencia team with most of the players in the early twenties. Gattuso will be given time to shape the squad and against top opponents there is a highly likely chance of the young group coming up with an inspired performance.
BARCELONA
Despite their recent loss in the El Classico to Real Madrid, the Catalans have taken care of results by winning both their home games in the last week to stay only 3 points behind the table toppers. They beat Villareal and Athletic Bilbao at home with an aggregate score line of 7-0.
Ousmane Dembele caught fire in their last match against Athletic Bilbao as he grabbed a hattrick of assists and also got himself into the score sheet. He recently scored against Inter Milan in the Champions League two weeks ago.
Barcelona have been extremely fluent in their attacking style as they have scored 28 league goals in their first 11 matches. Xavi will be pleased with their attacking input however will hope that their performance against Real Madrid was an anomaly.
They have also been one of the best defensive sides in the league having only conceded 4 goals all season, 1 to Real Sociedad earlier in the season, and 3 goals to Real Madrid in the derby match.
This is a very polished Barcelona side and will be confident of sweeping aside a young Valencia side.
