In the following round, the final score was a (0‑1) win in an away match against Real Valladolid. In the last 10 home matches Barcelona has won 8, tied 1 and lost 1. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches. In their home matches there is a tendency for goals, since 45 of the last 61 matches have ended with Over 2,5 goals. This is a team that likes to score first. They have opened up the score in 12 of the last 15 matches, they have reached half‑time in front in 6 of those 12 matches and have held on to the lead until the end of the 90' in 8 of them.

Barcelona comes to this match with a 0-1 away victory over Valladolid: Dembélé scored the only goal of the win. In this home match it is expected that coach Ernesto Valverde will play in the usual tactical system, that is, the 4-3-3, benefiting ball possession and organized attacks: Coutinho is a key player in the Catalan team. However the locals showed some weaknesses in the defensive set pieces and in the aerial game. Lionel Messi is the team's top scorer in the league with 2 goals scored. For this game the coach can not count on Samper and Denis Suárez, both with physical problems.

Confirmed Lineup: Marc-André ter Stegen, Sergi Roberto, Jordi Alba, Gerard Piqué, Samuel Umtiti, Sergio Busquets, Ivan Rakitić, Philippe Coutinho, Luis Suárez, Lionel Messi, Ousmane Dembélé.
Coach: X. Hernández.
