Barcelona Current Form – WWWWL

Barcelona find themselves right in the middle of an absolute scamper toward the La Liga trophy. They have shown championship dominance at times, but they will know better than most that there are times where controlled wins with a slice of good fortune are just as important at this point in the season. 

They have once again been their formidable selves at home this season, averaging an impressive 2.5 goals per game in front of their home fans and enjoying their usual fluid and high-octane approach to football, both with and without the ball. They won’t necessarily have it all their own way here, but expect a big showing from the hosts come Sunday afternoon. 

Key Players to Watch

  • Robert Lewandowski 
    Is it possible to see him as one of the most underrated players of the modern era? His experience is incredible, and his clinical precision will no doubt add value at the top of the pitch as well for his side. Keep an eye on him here. 
  • Pedri 
    He is an absolute wizard in the middle of the pitch. He is able to dictate the pace and tempo of the game without a serious fuss, and his ability to unlock opposing defences makes him a player worth his weight in gold for the hosts. 
  • Lamine Yamal 
    He is a winger who adds incredible excitement and pace to his game. He has remained an attacking threat, which is difficult to contain and predict; he will be one they all look at to make the difference here. 

Levante Current Form – LWDLL

The visitors find themselves right in the middle of a relegation scrap, and the reality is that this is largely due to their inconsistency and inability to put games to bed. Their defensive insecurity is also a point worth considering, but likely the primary concern has been their record on the road. 

There is no doubt that they hold attacking threats of their own, but turning every game into a ding-dong battle and playing as openly as they have just simply left them susceptible to being taken advantage of. 

Their defensive concerns are stark but given that they have no choice but to try and attack this game makes it an intriguing encounter. 

Key Players to Watch

  • Ivan Romero 
    The visitors' attacking ace in their number nine role, his creativity and explosiveness, could ask questions of this defence. He is capable of punishing any space or lapse in defensive focus, so keep a close eye on his movement here. 
  • Kareem Tunde 
    His pace and movement will be key here; if Barcelona gives away unnecessary space and allows him to grow into the game, the hosts could find themselves contending with a real attacking threat. 
  • Pablo Martinez 
    A composed, yet incredibly intelligent and aggressive player through Levante’s midfield, he will no doubt be asked to break up play through those middle lines and not allow Barca to progress through to the final third with ease. His role is vital, and so he is certainly one to keep a close eye on.

Predicted Line-Ups

  1. Barcelona 
    Garcia, Balde, Garcia, Cubarsi, Kounde, Olmo, De Jong, Lopez, Raphinha, Torres, Yamal

  2. Levante 
    Ryan, Gomez, Fuente, Moreno, Sanchez, Martinez, Arriaga, Tunde, Alvarez, Losada, Romero. 

Suggested Bets

Here are a few betting angles for a more generous return on your investment. 

  1. Barcelona to Win & Over 2.5 Goals: Barca’s attacking form and Levante’s defensive issues point to a duplicity of goals. (4/7 with Stake)

  2. Barcelona -1.5 Handicap: We expect a rather comfortable home victory here. Back the hosts to overcome the deficit with ease. (3/5 with BetWinner)

  3. Both Teams to Score – No: Levante may struggle to create clear chances, and since they may have to overextend themselves here, we are backing Barca to take full advantage. (10/11 with Betway)

Value Bets

Here are our leading and best bets for this La Liga encounter. 

  1. Robert Lewandowski – First Goalscorer: He is their talisman, and when playing at the Camp Nou, he is able to strike early. (7/2 with Pinnacle)

  2. Correct Score 3-0 Barcelona: It is always a risk to back a correct scoreline, but there are few other options which illustrate this sort of dominance. (8/1 with 888Starz). 

Prediction: Barcelona Win to Nil

 There has already been a lot said about this Barcelona side and their need to claim every point on offer here. The quality they have, the run of form they are enjoying in the league, and their historical dominance against their opponent suggest they are worthy favourites coming into this game. 

For Levante, they find themselves right in the middle of a relegation scrap. They will need to throw as little caution to the wind as possible and make the most of every opportunity here…the only concern is how vulnerable such an approach might leave them. 
Nevertheless, we are backing the hosts to come away with all three points here and a clean sheet still intact.
