Barcelona vs Oviedo Preview & Tips
Barcelona are looking to bounce back from a stunning 2-1 loss to Real Sociedad in their last league game as they saw their lead over Real Madrid at the summit cut to a single point.
Oviedo prop up the La Liga table after a torrid start to the season has seen the side win just two of their opening 20 games.
- Barcelona have won to nil in three of their last four in the league
Head To Head
Barcelona have won five of their last 10 against their opponents, with Oviedo winning four times and one game ending as a draw.
Barcelona Form
Barcelona have been outstanding this season, but their loss to Real Sociedad at the weekend saw their lead at the summit cut to a single point.
16 wins, one draw and three defeats has resulted in 49 points, but Real Madrid have matched them all the way, securing 48 points of their own. With Real building up ahead of steam, Barcelona know they cannot afford to start dropping points as the campaign heats up.
With this in mind, I predict there will be a reaction from the home side at the weekend. Barca have won all nine of their home matches in La Liga, while their last three wins in the league have been to nil. With this in mind, I predict a big result for the league leaders.
Oviedo Form
Oviedo have found La Liga a tough place to ply their trade this season, notching just 13 points from 20 games. Their lowly points tally means they are already seven points short of Valencia and safety.
With wins and points vital, Oviedo have to find a way to climb the table. However, they make one of the toughest trips possible in La Liga this weekend, and they are completely outmatched.
The home side have scored 54 goals to Oviedo’s 11, while the travelling side have conceded 31 times to Barca’s 22. I predict that Oviedo will slip to another chastening defeat as they fail to score once again.
Verdict
I am backing Barcelona to win and keep a clean sheet as they bounce back from their loss to Real Sociedad in style.
