Barcelona has been in remarkable form, winning 15 of their last 16 top-tier matches, including a recent run of five straight victories.
On the other hand, Valladolid has struggled on the road, losing six of their last eight LaLiga away games, including a loss to Barcelona.
Analyzing their recent performances, Valladolid’s last 16 LaLiga matches have mostly featured fewer than 3.5 goals, with 15 of those games falling under this threshold. Similarly, Barcelona’s last 15 matches have also seen three goals or fewer, indicating that their upcoming match is unlikely to be a high-scoring affair.
Both teams have a pattern of scoring and conceding in the same game: Barcelona in their last nine top-flight matches and Valladolid in eight of their last ten league games. This trend suggests that both teams might find the net in their upcoming encounter.
Valladolid has maintained a streak of 37 consecutive away games in the top flight with no more than three goals scored. Meanwhile, most of Barcelona’s last 20 LaLiga matches have also ended with fewer than 3.5 goals.
Prediction: Barcelona 1, Valladolid 1
