This match will be played on 24/02/2024 at 22:15
Barcelona will be aiming to build on a 2-1 win over Celta Vigo when they face Getafe in the La Liga round 26. Barca are eager to stay in the Champions League berth and we are positive that they will adopt an attack-minded approach in Saturday’s encounter. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Robert Lewandowski, who scored a brace against Os Celeste, while Joao Felix faces race against the clock to be fit for the match. All Ferran Torres, Sergi Roberto, Alex Balde, and Marcos Alonso are out of contention with injuries.
Los Azulones, on the other hand, are undefeated in the previous three league matches. The capital club have recorded only one win on the road this season and, taking everything into account, we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling Barcelona’s party at Camp Nou. Jordi Martin is a major doubt, while Mauro Arambarri remains on the sidelines with an ACL problem.
How the bookies view it

Head to head

Players to watch
Barcelona’s defence has played a pivotal role in much of their success this season with Jules Kounde and Andreas Christensen impressing at the back. They have kept clean sheets in six of their last seven home matches and could be set for a repeat at 8/15 with BoyleSports.
At the other end of the pitch, with Robert Lewandowski serving the second of his three match suspension, Ousmane Dembele will be the one to watch for Barcelona. The forward has five goals this season and is priced at 6/4 by BS88 to score anytime.
Anything else catch the eye?
Barcelona have won to nil in six of their last seven home matches and could be set for a similar outcome at 4/6 with Paddy Power. There have been a number of comfortable wins in that run which means a -2 handicap could also be considered at 13/8 with Paddy Power.
With the Catalans expected to be comfortable on Sunday, they could be tipped to win both halves at 13/10 with Coral.
