Valencia game against Barcelona is supposed to be an easy win for Barcelona considering Barcelona's form in the League and the poor form of Valencia since the beginning of the season but Valencia not getting a win in three matches in Laliga and Barcelona losing out in the Champions League can affect the performance of the two teams negatively or positively, for Valencia, they haven't defeated FC Barcelona recentlyly going with their history but playing at home in front of their fans who are hungry to see them win could add to the moral of the players to make things so difficult for Barcelona who was trashed 0:3 by Bayern Munich in their last Champions League match.

For FC Barcelona, I think they will capitalize on the poor form of Valencia to continue their decent performance in the Laliga since they still have the hope of getting back to the top of the League if Real Madrid get defeated by their opponents Girona or Barcelona may probably close the 3 points gap between them to keep their title hope alive so is going to be a big clash for the team with Valencia hoping to get their first win after several matches in Laliga and also defeating Barcelona after a long time.

Elche is even worst compared with cadiz with only 4 points from all of matches in la liga. This team was not even la liga's level. It must be played in a competition under la liga. Atletico is far better and atletico can win easily against cadiz. The win that already achieved by cadiz is pure luck. You can see the matches after that result and almost all of matches were getting draw. Cadiz was loosing in the last match against rayo. Cadiz just like a tier B team that played in the tier S competition.
The result from the match can be predicted easily if cadiz will be loosing against atletico madrid. The gaps is too far between atletico compared with cadiz.

Cadiz is weak team they have problem to their forward line and to defense this season even they are the team with less of productivity on Laliga and also the team who had worst defense along with Elche and probably Cadiz will early to relegated this season because they always have poor performance for every matches and on the paper obviously Atletico is the favourite so no wonder if most people predict Atletico will going to win the match although Atletico performance is not quite good on champion league but i think they can able to beat Cadiz today and the current odds for Atletico is @1.62 this odds quite fair for me considering Atletico good from whole sides compared to Cadiz

However, Valencia is 11th in the points table. However, the performance of this team is very poor. They have won just four matches this season. I don't think Barcelona is in very good form. Barcelona should have no trouble winning against Valencia though. Valencia's player will try to draw. Barcelona must perform very carefully. Since now Barcelona's only goal is the La Liga title.

As a matter of fact, I am not so sure if Xavi is really bringing something very unique to the table for Barcelona except for the fact that he has bought some expensive players. And probably bringing back the tiki-taka style of football. Due to the fact that tiki-taka is very well known in Barcelona, the team found some initial improvements. Other than that, I do not think that Xavi has done anything really exceptional for Barcelona so far. It will be interesting to see if Barcelona will be able to win the La Liga title this season. It will be a problem for Xavi to keep his job if they are not able to do that, especially after investing so much money into the transfer market. 

Valencia, who this season is being coached by Gennaro Gattuso, will certainly put pressure on Barcelona even though Valencia's performance this week was quite bad. Valencia also has a new striker namely Edinson Cavani who comes from Manchester United and has scored 4 goals in 6 games in La Liha with Valencia.

Currently, Valencia are in 9th position and are still trying to get points to move up the rankings, while Barcelona is in 2nd position in the standings after Real Madrid, who are still leading the top of the standings. Barcelona is also strengthened with its newest reliable striker, Robert Lewandowski, who has so far scored 12 goals. Even though Barcelona failed in the champions league, Barcelona will still fight for La Liga.

Valencia is not a terrible opponent for Barcelona and I'm sure they will score a lot of goals in this match because using it to add points in the table and catch up with Real Madrid, Xavi had to force the team a little bit to do their best tonight. The Champions League is not the way and at least they have felt the atmosphere in the Champions League and still have to defend their title in La Liga.

Barcelona's next game is against Valencia away. Valencia have been in a pretty bad shape recently. They couldn't get a win for three weeks. They lost their last home game to even Mallorca by 2-1 so Barcelona should be able to do much better than that.

Things are going quite well for Barcelona in the La Liga. Of course being eliminated in the Champions League is a big disappointment for them. But I don't expect this to affect their performance against Valencia too badly. They destroyed Valencia by 4-1 in their last head-to-head game as well. We might watch a similar game here.

Now maybe it's just a matter of waiting for them to see if they can still compete well or whether defeat and being eliminated in the Champions League is a scourge that destroys their mentality.
Xavi has to make some plans at least for a half-time break in this case so that he continues to be trusted by the crowd.
Even though it is a disgrace to be eliminated in the Champions League, at least they must continue to compete in La Liga.

Barcelona just had a bad start last season, but in the second half the team improved its results and naturally took second place in the standings. Well, this season Barcelona has a great start and only the defeat by Real Madrid in El classico slightly spoils the impression of the team's start. Another question is, it is stupid to draw far-reaching conclusions after 11 rounds, and even more so on the basis of this to say that this season is much better. In the remaining time, anything can happen, as well as maintaining the momentum, as well as its fall and, as a result, falling out of the contenders for the title of champion.

Well few years ago a lot of people says that barcelona gonna be the new ac milan and it seems going to be true.. ac milan well known as a really big club in the past with lots of trophy but had bad times being trophyless for years , crazy to think that way .. but barcelona already did.

The fans won't this to keep going , no wonder they ask for more not waiting for too long.

What an end of this match as we have six cards in last 18 minutes with no goal and two red cards both were off the pitch to Mallorca and four yellow cards and ends of this match was help in a draw which was expected because Espanyol doing good in last few matches, so they have another positive end of the match now with this result they are having 13th place with most chances they could be slipped because few teams are doing good job, and they have matching in coming days which can give them points which could be enough for going above these both teams.

Mallorca was doing good in first half but fail to have any goal with in second half they were against dominating force, but both teams were able to have one goal each which help them for having share the honours and points as well.

With the current condition of the players it seems that this is something that is natural for them and it would be outrageous if with the condition of the players at a price that can be said to be draining their wallets they are still not better than last season.
Currently Barcelona are still determined to follow the title race even though they are now definitely feeling the loss due to being eliminated from the Champions League but there is still hope for La Liga although I personally still believe Madrid will back to back.

In LaLiga, Barcelona is better this season than last season. In the last season of La Liga 2021-2022, from 38 matches, Barcelona experienced 7 defeats and 10 draws. But for this season for 11 matches, 1 defeat and 1 draw. In my opinion this season is much better. In addition, there is only a difference of 3 points with Real Madrid, while the number of goals Barcelona is superior to Real Madrid. If Madrid lose a match, Barcelona will automatically lead the standings.

Barcelona still have to go through a long process to be able to return to compete with Real Madrid as they did in the past few seasons. But this season is certainly better news compared to what they did in previous seasons. The previous season they could not compete at all because they had to be far points behind Real Madrid, they even had to be knocked out of the top 4 of the standings before they finally returned at the end of the season.

Oh yes, in the game that had just finished, Mallorca and Espanyol could only draw 1-1.

And sure enough it was a draw achieved by both teams. I think this result is a fair result for both teams when you look at their game. Mallorca did dominate the game a bit, but it was enough to bring them to victory. There is something unique when these two teams meet, because often in their matches they are colored by red cards, be it from Mallorca or Espanyol.

Remaining 3 points behind I think Barcelona is compete team in La Liga for Real Madrid to get tittle in this season, not running well at champion league after not qualifying for next round bad impact for Barcelona and how confidence for match left at domestic league. Seems Atletico Madrid, Villareal, Real Betis and Sociedad not enough competent for Real Madrid in La Liga, I think need get confidence back for Barcelona after bad achievement at Champion League and focus at domestic league to make Madrid not easy get La Liga tittle in this season.

Barcelona face Valencia tomorrow night and lets see will get back confidence after bad performance and achievement at champion league? seems faced with small team not any problem yet for Barcelona to win.

I have also seen how Real Madrid is trying to maintain its position and reclaim the first position from Barcelona through the victory that Real Madrid was able to achieve. This proves that there is no stronger team in La Liga than Real Madrid and Barcelona, only that Barcelona is not better than Real Madrid this season, but only better than any other team in La Liga other than Real Madrid.

Right now, Barcelona is clearly better side then Valencia as they are struggling badly and have not good time in last few weeks specially in last week when they lost match against Mallorca at home even after having early lead, but now they are going to face team like Barcelona which is surely not going to give any space specially after their lost against Bayern Munich they could be in aggressive mood and try to ruin them in this match.

Valencia which is already having the weakest defence in top half of the league table now going to face Barcelona which is having most lethal attack and second-best team in La Liga so here most chances we will be able to have not good chance for them against Barcelona in this match.

The match has been running for 80" minutes and the current score is 1-1 (draw). from the statistics of the game, I saw that mallorca and espanyol had almost equal strength, mallorca appeared dominant in the first half but in the second half espanyol reversed it, the possibility of the final score was a draw.
