class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The 26-time La Liga champions are hoping to round off the week with another win and we are backing them to claim all three points against Los Che
Barcelona welcome Valencia to Camp Nou on Saturday afternoon with Ronald Koeman’s men aiming to record three consecutive wins in La Liga for the first time this season.
The Blaugrana have recorded hard-fought wins against Levante and Real Sociedad in the last week and their opponents here begin the weekend just three points above the relegation zone.

Barcelona vs Valencia Preview
There seems little doubt that this season Valencia will aspire to little more than a mid-table finish, especially with half of their starting eleven having left the club over the summer.
As a result, the team remain extremely vulnerable at the back with their only clean sheet in the last 10 matches coming against Eibar – the lowest scorers in the division.
Valencia have conceded at least twice in eight of those 10 games, including against lowly Terrassa on Wednesday night, and Barca should be able to cause them more problems this weekend.
Nevertheless, the Blaugrana have not been firing on all cylinders themselves and while they are likely to have too much for the visitors, there could be some interest in opposing them to run riot.
Barcelona vs Valencia Tips And Predictions
Barca to win and under 4.5 goals in the game is priced at 9/10 (1.90) with bet365 and should be of interest, given that this bet has paid out in nine of Barcelona’s 11 competitive wins this season whilst 16 of their 18 games in all competitions have seen fewer than five goals scored.
