Barcelona

In midweek, Barcelona sensationally lost 1:0 to Shakhtar in the fourth round of the Spanish La Liga. Before that, the Catalans lost at home to Real Madrid and won over Real Sociedad. Going into Saturday's pool, the Catalans are third in the league standings with 27 points, 4 points behind leading Girona. Barcelona's home statistics are the best in the division despite Blaugrana having yet to host at the Camp Nou. They have five wins in six games with a goal difference of 13-4.

Alaves

The Basques have won two games in a row. First, Alaves defeated Deportivo Murcia 12:0 in the Spanish Cup, and last week Almeria 1:0. Due to the previous victory, Alaves climbed to 14th place with 12 points, five points ahead of Celta. The Basques' away statistics are 17th in the league, +0=2-4, 3-8 goal difference. 

Expert Betting Tips

After the humiliation in Germany, we expect the Catalans to be active in the home game against the Basques, especially since they mustn't miss points. Recall that the gap to the leaders has already reached 4 points and will perhaps increase even more after Saturday's matches. The Basques have had some good results lately, but Alaves plays much worse on the road than at home, so we doubt the visitors can keep up with the hosts. As for the total, we don't expect a very effective match.
