Barcelona seeking three-match winless streak in La Liga against Celta Vigo

Celta de Vigo vs FC Barcelona - 06/11/2021

05/11/21 3065

Barcelona head into La Liga matchday 13 on the back of three straight matches without a win in the league.

The Blaugrana are ninth in the league with 16 points from 33 possible. On Saturday, Barcelona head to Balaidos to face off with Celta Vigo.

Sergi Barjuan is the Barcelona caretaker manager as the club attempt to sign Xavi as the new coach of the team. Barcelona did win in the Champions League group stage versus Dynamo Kiev 1-0 in midweek.

Celta Vigo are 15th in the La Liga table going into the match. They are just two points ahead of the relegation three. The Sky Blues have taken 11 points from 36 points possible this season in La Liga.

Last season, Celta Vigo and Barcelona split the La Liga matches in 2020-21. The Sky Blues went to Camp Nou and won 2-1 while Barcelona claimed a victory at the Balaidos Stadium 3-0.

Barcelona have played well on the road this season with 14 points from 21 on offer. Just one of Barcelona’s seven matches away from home this season in La Liga finished in a loss. The Blaugrana have outscored opponents 15-8 away from Camp Nou.

Celta Vigo have taken eight points from 18 on offer in La Liga this season. They have outscored opponents 7-6 at Balaidos this term.

Barcelona are unbeaten in nine of their 11 matches with Celta Vigo in all competitions. The Blaugrana have posted a record of 5W-4D-2L over the course of those 11 fixtures.

Barjuan has a long list of potential injuries to key players. Defenders Sergino Dest, Gerard Pique, and Moussa Wague are all expected to miss the game and not return until after the international break.

Forward Ousmane Dembele, Sergio Aguero, and Martin Braithwaite are all three set to miss the fixture as well. Pedri and Sergi Roberto are doubts.

Celta Vigo manager Eduardo Coudet has two players suffering from injuries. Hugo Mallo and Santi Mina are both set to miss the game and return after the international break. Midfielder Brais Mendez is set to miss the fixture due to a red card ban.

Barcelona’s midweek Champions League win should give them a boost going into the match on Saturday. The Blaugrana should go to Balaidos and win for a second straight season.

It should be a low-scoring game with under 1.5 goals scored. The Sky Blues should struggle in defence and fail to put together sustained attacking moves.
