Barcelona - Granada predictions

Barcelona should stroll into a fairly easy victory this Sunday. The odds are decidedly in their favour, with most top bookies pricing a home win at 1.24.

Granada are massive underdogs and will be extremely lucky to avoid complete annihilation at the hands of Barcelona.

The hosts are coming on the back of a decisive victory in their away game at Deportivo Alavés, though it’s hard to say such an outcome was unexpected. They were overwhelmingly seen as the favourites, after all. Still, the match was completely one-sided, which is probably good for their confidence.

The away team narrowly missed out on a chance to win their previous La Liga game, which they played at home. They took the lead in the first half, which was encouraging considering the game could have gone either way. Unfortunately for them, their opponents managed to equalise before the final whistle.

Given Granada_GOALS_CONCEDED goals conceded in their own net over the past 3 matches, Granada's defensive line is much to be desired.

Granada’s last five La Liga appearances all confirmed the Under 2.5 Market, which is why betting predictions point out this market as a good idea.

The away team’s confidence must be quite shaken after a poor first half of the season. They’re down in the relegation zone and desperately need to get their hands on some points before it’s too late. This matchup is not a great chance to do so, though – they’ll be fighting an uphill battle at Barcelona.

At this point, the clash between these two teams is notorious for producing inconclusive results. They already have several tied matches on record in this season alone, which is ultimately worse for the home team who are considered favourites.

The hosts went through a slew of unfortunate injuries recently, rendering some of their players unavailable for the match this Sunday. P. Paez Gaviria, Ferrán Torres, Alejandro Balde Martínez, João Félix will not be playing, though the team is still considered likely to win.

Going for a -1.5 Handicap on the favourite’s score is the best way to get some value out of this match. You’ll eliminate the possibility of a draw, for one. More importantly, this way you might actually get a decent payout for backing the stronger team.
