Barcelona play their first LaLiga home game of the season on Sunday against Valencia at the Estadi Johan Cruyff while refurbishment work to the Camp Nou is being completed.
Barca are on seven points after failing to win for the first time in 2025/26 with a 1-1 draw at Rayo Vallecano on August 31.
Victory would move Valencia level with their opponents after Carlos Corberan’s side won for the first time with a 3-0 triumph at home to Getafe two days earlier.
Quick take: Match context: momentum and small details could decide this one, especially set-pieces and transitions. Form and fitness will matter; expect managers to rotate carefully around the congested schedule. We’ll keep an eye on confirmed details as the story develops from official sources.
