Villareal and Barcelona meet in a match of the 30th round of La Liga. The confrontation will be held on Tuesday at 20:30 on Estadio de la Ceramica.
In the turn of the season, the “Catalans” were set up without any problems in the Camp Nou dispute, ending with a score of 2-0. No less than 20 direct confrontations were played at Villareal (championship and cup), 10 of which were won by guests, while the “yellow submarine” was imposed only 5 times. In the previous season, Barcelona managed to triumph over this field with a score of 2-0.
Ernesto Valverde and his students show up at this confrontation after 4 consecutive victories in all competitions, the last one being recorded in the previous weekend, 2-0 in the New Camp against the rivals of Espanyol Barcelona. On the other side, Villareal has ended a series of 4 consecutive winning games, with the failure of the Celta Vigo move, with a score of 2-3, in which the guests led the 2-0 to the break.
Barcelona has four wins in a row, three of which are in La Liga. Villareal did not feel very good in the home games played in the championship, the balance being 3 wins, 6 draws and 6 defeats.
Currently, Javier Calleja Revilla’s band is on the 17th position, at a single point in front of the 18th Celta Vigo team. The hosts will not seek to lose this duel, which, if guests can win, will not make a significant difference. The “Catalans” have not shown a remarkable offensive appetite in recent weeks, and against a band that is looking first to secure their defensive, we expect the first half to be not spectacular. We maximally score a goal scored in the first half of the match.
PREDICTION: Barcelona to win @ 1,65
