Barcelona form and stats

28 points is a decent return from 13 La Liga games here at Camp Nou for Barcelona. The data says 8 wins, 4 draws and 1 loss. Barcelona has a nice streak going on as they have played 16 consecutive leaguegames without losing (regardless of home/away). They are keen to extend their tally, a streak that began after the Cadiz defeat 100 days ago. The Barcelona fans aren't used to losing league-games here at Camp Nou and will expect new points from this game. Barcelona has played ten games in a row here without a defeat.

Defensively the home team are doing well, with their goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen not having conceded a league goal in 271 minutes.

Barcelona drew their last game, 1-1 away at Paris Saint Germain. A strong away win before that one, visiting Osasuna and winning 2-0.

Lionel Messi felt an ounce or two of guilt after the draw against Paris Saint Germain as the player was unable to convert a penalty kick in the 45th minute.

With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (32 in 13 games), Barcelona's attacking play is working. 13 goals have been conceded.

Huesca form and stats

There's been little loot from Huesca's travels as they have only collected 9 points from 13 away games in the La Liga. Huesca only have 1 win to counter their 6 defeats and 6 draws.

The manager J. Rojo Martín was unhappy after their last game, a La Liga match played at their home ground Estadio El Alcoraz. Huesca suffered a 3-4 loss to Celta de Vigo (placed 9th). Preceding that game, the 1-1 draw paying a visit to Eibar.

A crazy, crazy match with lots of goals last time out for Huesca, as mentioned above. 7 goals in that one, will this match be as much fun?

The home team is given a winning chance of about 80 percent by the betting public. This does not leave much hope for the visitors, but some teams enjoy the outsider role and perform well in it. Looking at similar away games for Huesca we find one game. Results are zero Huesca wins, zero draws and one defeat.

Huesca have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 13 league away games 13 goals have been scored. Huesca's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 22 goals from these trips.
