BAR vs VAL Dream11 MATCH PREVIEW:
Barcelona will look to keep a five-point gap at the top of the table when they host Valencia in a La Liga match at Camp Nou, in Catalonia, on Saturday night (IST).

Ernesto Valverde’s side is well on course for an unprecedented treble after overcoming Sevilla in the two-legged Copa del Rey quarterfinal tie. Needing to overcome a two-goal deficit, the Catalan giants scored six in the second leg and won the match 6-1 at Camp Nou.

Ernesto Valverde must be happy with the overall performace of his team as five different players scored the goals. The team looks well oiled, at least in the offensive department and is no longer dependent on Lionel Messi for goals.

The reigning La Liga champions are now on an eight game winning streak and lead the table by five points ahead of Atletico Madrid.

Valencia could never touch the lofty heights of last season which fetched them a champions league finish. The wins felt too esoteric all season with most of their games ending in draws.

But the recent signs suggests a change in the fortunes. The Los Che have won the last two league games and thee in the last five coming into this match.

BAR vs VAL Dream11 FANTASY TEAM:

Barcelona FANTASY PREDICTION:
Barcelona have enjoyed decent success in this fixture and are unbeaten in the last seven games against Valencia. But they don’t dominate the games as well, as the Los Che have two draws and haven’t lost by more than one goal on three occasions.
The reverse fixture also ended in a 1-1 draw at the Mestalla.
We are predicting a Barcelona win, but a narrow one.
