Barcelona vs Villarreal Predictions

• Both teams have scored in Barcelona’s last two matches
• Villarreal have netted in 11 of their 15 outings this season
• Barca are on a run of three successive home league victories

Can Barca return to form?

Barcelona had a stinker at the weekend, as their unbeaten run came to an untimely end thanks to a 3-1 defeat to Real Madrid in El Clasico.

That was the second successive game in which both teams scored, with Xavi’s side conceding three goals on each occasion.

Five of the last seven matches between these two teams have also ended with both teams netting, with Barca also winning five times.

Villarreal looking for third win on the spin

Villarreal have been in good form of late and sit just seven points behind Barcelona in the table, that after beating Osasuna 2-0 at the weekend.

Unai Emery’s side have been strong defensively, keeping four clean sheets in their last five, but they will find it harder to stop a Barcelona team who have won three in a row at Camp Nou.

The Yellow Submarine have scored in 11 of their 15 games, so they know where the back of the net is, while they are without a win on the road in four.

I predict that both teams will score in this game, but predict a Barca response, selecting 3-1 as a correct score prediction.
