Spain – La Liga
Date: Sunday, 9 October 2022
Kick-off at 20:00 UK/ 21:00 CET
Venue: Camp Nou.
Barca have been the absolute best team in the Spanish top flight so far, and they rightfully are at the top of the table. They are at home this Sunday, and will be the favorites to secure a win against the inconsistent Celta Vigo, who have been struggling on the road.
The Catalans have a 100% winning record disregarding a single draw, and they are also the only team in the whole competition to have won the past five fixtures in a row.
Going on, they scored the most number of goals of all the teams in the competition, and they conceded the least as well. In fact, they have a combined scorecard of 19-1 so far from their seven fixtures.
On top of that, they are also at home, where they are yet to let a single goal into their nets. In addition, they have a great h2h record against this rival over the years too.
Meanwhile, Celta Vigo lost most of their recent match-ups, and they are also letting in goals in huge numbers.
Moreover, they are on a long series of poor results on the road, and judging all these observations, it is expected that we are about to witness a convincing victory by Barcelona this weekend.
