Barcelona vs Celta Vigo Full Match Highlights Replay.
For the first time since March 2017, when they managed to do it in three straight matches, Barcelona struck 5+ goals in consecutive competitive appearances to thrash both Real Betis and Antwerp 5-0. The first of those victories helped them keep pace with fierce rivals Real Madrid and they ended matchday five two points adrift of the early La Liga (LL) pacesetters by maintaining an unbeaten start to their title defence (W4, D1).
It has manager Xavi boasting that the team is at its “highest level since I became the coach” in 2021, and perhaps then there’s no better opposition than Celta Vigo to continue demonstrating the transformation they have made under the Spanish legend, particularly as it was away to Celta that they threw away a 3-0 lead the day before Xavi’s appointment! After winning seven of their last nine home H2Hs (D1, L1), Barça look good value to vindicate Xavi’s claim.
As manager Rafa Benítez gears up for his first managerial meeting with Xavi, his return to Spain hasn’t gone to plan as Celta have just one win to their name, and that against slow-starting Almería (D1, L3). A 1-0 defeat to Mallorca last weekend left Benítez frustrated by a disallowed goal after just a fraction of the ball didn’t cross the line.
That confirmed their worst three-game start to a LL home campaign (no points and no goals) in 100 years of history, so the Sky Blues may benefit from a little less pressure on the road, and they ought to remember the sole win in that otherwise bleak aforementioned H2H record which came as recently as May 2021. And Benítez can add to that with an impressive record away to Barcelona having lost none of his last four away H2Hs (W3, D1) while managing Liverpool and Valencia.
Players to watch: After getting the move he wanted to Barcelona, João Félix has opened the scoring in both of their last two games. Celta could use some of Jørgen Strand Larsen’s international form after recently netting once and assisting twice for Norway against Jordan.
Hot streak: One side has been leading ‘to nil’ at half-time in each of the last four H2Hs (Barcelona HT: W3, L1).
