I see Barcelona winning this match, but with some drama. Their defense is really poor, and they're letting the opponents get 5,6 shots on target. Now, with Balde injured who, by my standards, is the best player in their defense I see only more trouble for the Barcelona squad. But as I said, they will win the game, maybe 2:1.
It should be an easy match for Barcelona but because they ain't consistent since the beginning of this season, I cannot vouche that they will win the match. Barcelona is not in their super from making difficult for me to predict the outcome of their matches. However, Valencia is not as weak as we think, they can surprise us on that day if they have the quality.
I expect a win for Barcelona because they have the quality and players it takes to win Valencia without struggling that much.
This should have been a winnable game for Barcelona, but in football, anything can happen, and surprises can come at any time. I doubt if Barcelona can get that win easily because I think Valencia will most likely put up a fierce fight, and in the previous match, Barcelona failed to get a win when playing against Rayo Vallecano, and that could be a sign that Barcelona are not at their best either. Valencia is not as glamorous as Barcelona, and they also did not have a good start, but they just got their first win in La Liga, so that could be motivation for the game against Barcelona.
