This match has been long awaited by fans of both sides, as it's the first Liga Pro game of the season. Both Barcelona and LDU Portoviejo are looking for a positive start to their campaigns.

The hosts Barcelona saw competitive action as recent as three days ago, playing in the Copa Libertadores. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Cerro Porteno.

Barcelona form and stats

This is expected to be a close game, with Barcelona perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Barcelona as a small favourite), we find two games. Barcelona has won one of these, drawn zero and lost one.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Copa Libertadores game versus Independiente del Valle in only four days. This game is also played here at Estadio Monumental Isidro Romero Carbo.

Last season, Barcelona's league statistics were 17 wins, 4 draws and 9 losses, resulting in a 2nd position in the Liga Pro. Over these 30 matches they scored 56 goals and conceded 38. Playing at home last season Barcelona managed 10-1-4 (win-draw-lost) with 34 goals and 17 conceded.
