Barcelona form and stats
OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Barcelona's two home games in the La Liga so far this season, having collected 4 points here at Camp Nou.
The Barcelona supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host Ferencváros in Champions League and win 5-1. A La Liga defeat was the result before that one, 0-1 away at Getafe.
As mentioned above, Barcelona "killed" Ferencváros in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.
The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Barcelona handle that role? We have found three games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The stats for these games are one win, one draw and one defeat.
Barcelona are traveling soon after this match as the Champions League match at Juventus awaits in four days.
Early season league goal statistics from Barcelona's 2 home games: 5 goals, 1 conceded.
Real Madrid form and stats
Real Madrid are happy with their away performances in the La Liga so far, having secured two victories and one draw from their first three travels. Winning streaks in away matches are not that common, but Madrid are close to a proper streak after winning their two previous away games.
Home advantage was not enough for Madrid in their previous game, as they lost their Champions League-match, hosting Shakhtar Donetsk, 2-3. A loss against Cadiz was the result prior to that, in a La Liga home game.
We have checked recent matches where Madrid have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those one game were zero victories, one draw and zero defeats.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Madrid manager Z. Zidane as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Borussia M'gladbach.
Madrid are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 5 times in 3 away games so far. It's not easy to score on Madrid as they have only conceded 2 goals from these away games.
