Barcelona’s recent results have been awful, but it’s been a long time since they dropped points at home. Levante have a solid record when it comes to scoring against Blaugrana, so I am backing the Catalan giants to win with BTTS. 

Key Stats  


  • Barcelona have won their last 11 home matches. 
  • Barcelona have won their last 16 home matches against Levante. 
  • Barcelona have seen BTTS in 3 of their last 4 matches against Levante. 
  • Levante have lost their last 3 matches. 

Barca Dominate H2H 


Barcelona have won 33 out of 46 head to head matches against this opponent, while Levante secured just 6 victories. Blaugrana are also convincing when it comes to goal difference 137-55. 

Hosts Looking to Recover 


After losing two of their last five league games, Barcelona are no longer the table leaders in La Liga, currently sitting in 2nd place with a two-point deficit from Real Madrid. 

Blaugrana were beaten in Catalan derby at Girona 2-1 on Monday even though they had a good start, Lamine Yamal missing an early penalty, while Pau Cubarsi broke the deadlock in the 59th minute.  Hansi Flick’s side left too much space on the counter, allowing 2.86 xG and 9 shots on target. 

Barca remain strong when it comes to home matches though, currently riding an 11-game winning streak across competitions. The most recent one was a 3-0 win over Mallorca, allowing just 24% possession to the opposition. 

Levante a Serious Relegation Candidate 


Appointing Luis Castro in late December didn’t change much for Levante as they still sit inside the relegation zone, currently hold a three-game losing run, while also are the worst defense in La Liga (allowed 41 goals). 

They started this month with a 4-2 road loss at Athletic Bilbao, followed by a derby 2-0 home defeat against Valencia, combining just four shots on target across these two contests. 

16 shots and 0.92 xG were not enough for Levante to find the net on Monday, suffering another defeat against Villarreal 1-0. 

Predicted Lineups & Team News 


Barcelona (4-2-3-1) Joan Garcia; Jules Kounde, Pau Cubarsi, Eric Garcia, Alejandro Balde; Fermin Lopez, Frenkie de Jong; Lamine Yamal, Dani Olmo, Raphinha; Robert Lewandowski 

Pedri finally recovered from an injury and is expected to start on bench. Gavi is still out with a knee injury, while Andreas Christensen is also sidelined with same type of injury. 

Levante (4-2-3-1) Mathew Ryan; Jeremy Toljan, Adrian De la Fuente, Matias Moreno, Manu Sanchez; Jon Ander Olasagasti, Ugo Raghouber; Kareem Tunde, Carlos Alvarez, Ivan Romero; Etta Eyong 

Roger Brugue and Pablo Martinez are the only two absentees for Levante, both recovering from knee injuries. Unai Elgezabal is doubtful, while Kervin Arriaga is suspended. 

Verdict

Levante have a good chance of scoring on Sunday in my opinion. They netted twice through counter attacks against Bilbao recently, but stand no chance against Barca at Camp Nou. A home win & BTTS is the best bet.
