Valencia vs Barcelona Prediction & Picks - LaLiga

 by Carlos Zabala | in LaLiga Picks

Valencia will face FC Barcelona in Flick's debut as the new Cule coach. Valencia brought Dimitrievski and Dani Gomez as reinforcements for the new season. Valencia is characterized by its unpredictability. It can win difficult games and lose those that seem easy. Valencia finished 9th in La Liga 2023-2024 and outside of European competitions.

The match will be at the Mestalla stadium. Barcelona will face it facing extra sporting, economic problems that have prevented it from registering its new signing Olmo so far. Barcelona will seek to start on the right foot, and shake off the bad streak of two 0-0 draws in its last two debuts in La Liga.

Lewandowski has great memories of the last time he faced Valencia in the League. Specifically, it was in March of this year where in the 4-2 victory Barcelona won thanks to the Polish player's hat-trick.

Valencia has a different streak to Barcelona, ​​and they have won each of their last 4 league openers. Valencia won 2, lost 3 and drew 2 in their preparation games for the new season.

For another consecutive year, Real Madrid is the favorite on the betting sites to lift the league trophy in 2025, with Barcelona following in 2nd place with odds of 4.50.

Our Valencia vs Barcelona Prediction

It will certainly not be an easy start for Flick. Even though Barcelona drew 1-1 in their last game at Mestalla, it is also true that Barcelona are no strangers to winning there. In 2021, Barcelona won at Mestalla 4-1 in La Liga. Barcelona's midfield is depleted by injuries to Gabi and de Jong, Gavi is a doubt and Olmo has not been able to be registered in La Liga. A difficult start awaits Barcelona against a Valencia side that always starts well. Our prediction for Valencia vs Barcelona is: Valencia or Tie, +110 at DraftKings.
