FC Barcelona vs Valencia CF Prediction 26 January 2025
Added on 24 January, 2025
Barcelona and Valencia are set to face off in one of the most intriguing clashes of La Liga’s 21st round.
Barcelona have been in relentless form over the past two weeks, playing five matches and securing emphatic victories against Atletico (2:0), Real Madrid (5:2), Betis (5:1), and Benfica (5:4), along with a 1:1 draw against Getafe. The Catalans currently sit third in the table with 39 points and an impressive goal difference of 52:23, firmly in the title race.
Meanwhile, Valencia’s struggles continue as they languish in 19th place with just 16 points and a modest 19:29 goal tally. A recent 1:0 win over Real Sociedad offered a rare moment of relief, following disappointing results against Espanyol (1:1), Alaves (2:2), Real Madrid (1:2), and Sevilla (1:1). The once-formidable Los Ches are facing a tough battle for survival.
Given Barcelona's attacking firepower and Valencia’s defensive frailties, the visitors will have a tough task avoiding a heavy defeat. Anything other than a commanding victory for the hosts would be a surprise.
