Granada vs Barcelona Prediction & Betting Tips - LaLiga

Prediction published on 06/10/2023, 13:05  by Sridhar in LaLiga Predictions

La Liga relegation battlers Granada will have a tough task of halting the charge of top-spot chasers Barcelona when the sides meet this weekend. This match will be played at the Los Carmenes stadium on Sunday with the hosts starting the weekend at 19th place and the visitors at 2nd place. Granada are just two points off the bottom of the table and two away from safety. They have just one win and two draws from their eight league games so far. Both those draws have come in a row, as they held Real Betis to a 1-1 draw followed by a come-from-behind 3-3 draw against Almeria last weekend. It is their home form that has been a concern with Granada winning just once across their four league games at this venue in this campaign – losing two.

Barcelona are a point behind Real Madrid ahead of this weekend matches, putting the onus on them to win here. The Catalans are coming off a 1-0 win over Porto in the Champions League which has boosted their continental hopes. That win also made it a run of ten games unbeaten for the visitors in all competitions. This sequence saw them win eight and draw two, which further boosts their hopes of winning this game. In the league, Barcelona have won six of their last seven games, keeping them on track to continue that momentum. Interestingly, they have drawn only two games in this league campaign and both have come on the road!
