Easy Win on the Road for Barca

Valencia are struggling this season, sitting second from bottom in La Liga after 22 games. Things have improved since Carlos Corberan took over in December, but Ches still have much work to do in their battle for survival.

Despite their league woes, Valencia’s form in the Copa del Rey has been solid, winning four away matches on the bounce. They have seen off Parla Escuela, Ejea, Eldense, and Ourense to book their place in the last eight.

Barca are in the quarter-finals after easy wins over Barbastro and Real Betis. They were far too hot to handle for Betis in the previous round, with goals from Gavi, Jules Kounde, Raphinha, Ferran Torres, and Lamine Yamal doing the damage in the 5-1 rout.

Hansi Flick’s side head to Mestalla in great form, unbeaten in nine league and cup fixtures. After taking seven points from their last three in La Liga, Blaugrana have closed the gap on leaders Real Madrid to just four points.

Recent Valencia vs Barcelona Head-to-Head Meetings

Barcelona walloped Valencia at the Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys in La Liga a couple of weeks back, with five Barca players scoring in the 7-1 mauling. They also won the reverse fixture at Mestalla in August.

The Catalonian giants have an excellent record in this fixture, unbeaten in ten (eight wins, two draws). Valencia’s last victory came in a league meeting in January 2020.

Valencia vs Barcelona Betting Tips & Predictions

Barcelona have already beaten Valencia twice this term, and Flick’s side should seal an easy win at Mestalla on Thursday. Take a punt on the visitors to win -2 at 2.90.

Despite Barcelona collecting six points, Valencia have managed to net in both meetings this season. With that in mind, back the away win and both teams to score at 2.60.
