Barcelona have won five of the last six H2H matches against their next opponent. However, in the previous meeting, Valencia triumphed 3-1. That was the first victory for the team from Mestalla since 2019. Also, it is worth noting that the last four H2H games have gone over 3.5 goals.
Valencia team overview
In most seasons in the previous decade, Valencia were a mid-table team. They entered the 2026/27 campaign with similar expectations. However, in the first three La Liga rounds, Valencia collected only one point and are among the worst teams in the competition. After a draw in the opening round against Celta Vigo, Carlos Corberan's team lost to Betis and Deportivo A Coruna. In both defeats, Valencia were pretty even with their opponents, but terrible offense left them pointless. So far, Corberan's team has scored only one goal in three league rounds and will have to do much better.
Valencia have been active in the transfer market since the last match. They loaned Harvey Elliott from Liverpool. The player didn't have many chances to play in the Premier League last season, and now the attacking midfielder will have a chance to get back on track at Mestalla. On the other hand, Andre Almeida and Alberto Mari left Valencia in recent days.
Valencia have a lot of problems with missing players. They will be without Sergi Canos, Jose Copete, Diego Lopez, Pablo Maffeo, and Guido Rodriguez on Sunday afternoon.

Barcelona team overview
After two consecutive La Liga titles, Barcelona are aiming for another trophy in domestic football, but also to return to the top at the continental level. Hansi Flick's team is excellent at the start of the season with nine points and a 12:2 goal difference. In the previous game, Barcelona won 5-2 at home against Rayo Vallecano. Although the visitors scored first, there wasn't real danger of Flick's team dropping points, as they dominated throughout the game.
The most significant transfer for Barcelona in recent days was the signing of Gabriel Jesus from Arsenal. He scored six goals in 27 games across all competitions last season, but could be a valuable addition for Flick's team. On the other hand, Barcelona left a few youngsters who wouldn't have enough playing time in the 2026/27 season.
Roony Bardghji, Frenkie de Jong, and Gavi are injured and will not play on Sunday in Valencia.
