Real Valladolid picked up a fine point at Sevilla in the last match on August 19, when the Catalan side secured a 4-1 victory over Real Sociedad last weekend. Barcelona were disappointed by a goal from Rayo Vallecano on the opening weekend of the La Liga season to hold Xavi's side to a goalless draw, but they managed to pick up their first three points at Real Sociedad last time out, a 4-1 win. White and blue.
Robert Lewandowski netted twice in the encounter at the Real Arena, while Ousmane Dembele and Anzu Fati were on the scoresheet as the Catalan outfit sent a message to the rest of the division. Barcelona drew 3-3 with Manchester City in Wednesday evening's friendly and will bid to make it seven points from their opening three La Liga games ahead of a trip to Sevilla in early September.
Xavi's side finished 13 points behind La Liga champions Real Madrid last season, but they had an excellent summer transfer market and further additions cannot be ruled out before the end of the window. The Catalan side have won their last six La Liga meetings with Real Valladolid, including a 1-0 victory when the sides last met at the Camp Nou in April 2021, while they haven't conceded a goal to Sunday's opponents since October. 2019.
Real Valladolid were relegated to the Segunda Division for the 2021-22 campaign after finishing 19th in La Liga in 2020-21, but managed to return at the first time of asking by finishing second in the second tier. Staying in the top flight, the white and violet will be aware of the size of the task they face this season, and they went down 3-0 to Villarreal on the opening weekend of the new campaign.
Pacheta's side were much improved against Sevilla last time out, however, and managed to pick up a point at the Estadio Ramon. They took the lead through Anuar Touhami in the 80th minute of the match, only for Karim Recic to level the scores six minutes later. Real Valladolid have three big games against Almeria, Girona and Cadiz, the kind of matches that will determine whether they stay in the top flight this term. The promoted outfit, with legendary striker Ronaldo as the majority shareholder, can take heart from the fact that Barcelona lost five times in front of their own fans in the league last time out.
