The upcoming Sunday match for fourth-division team Barbastros is a historic event as they host the current LaLiga champions, Barcelona, at the Estadio Municipal de Deportes. They will be battling for a spot in the top 16 of the Copa del Rey.

Without a doubt, the town of the fourth-tier team will be gripped by intense joy. This is because they are not only playing against a highly reputed club for the first time, but also because they have made it to the third round of the Spanish cup for the first time in their history.

Barbastro vs Barcelona Betting Tips: AH2 -1.5

Despite recent struggles in various competitions, forcing them to fight hard for wins, Xavi’s team, Blaugrana, should easily defeat an opponent three levels below them, securing victory well before the match ends. Barbastro, despite being the underdogs, are brimming with confidence as they prepare to host the Catalan giants. They are on a five-match undefeated streak, managing to keep a clean sheet throughout. The fourth-tier team has won four times during this streak. One of these wins was against LaLiga’s Almeria, whom they defeated 1-0 in the Copa del Rey. They hope to pull off a historic upset this weekend.

Even if visiting coach Xavi decides to change his starting squad, it’s difficult to anticipate anything other than a standard win for the Catalans. They’ll use this match as a warm-up before their semi-final encounter with Osasuna in the Spanish Super Cup. Despite being a cup competition, the Blaugrana’s head coach will insist his team take this Sunday’s match seriously, with the aim of regaining confidence and certainty, while also starting the Copa del Rey campaign on a positive note. The gap between these teams is significant, and we’re betting on Barcelona, demonstrating this on the field with a decisive and confident victory, setting them up for progression to the national cup’s quarter-finals.

Barbastro team news

Undoubtedly, Barbastro boss Dani Martinez will almost certainly field the same eleven that eliminated LaLiga boys Almeria from the last round of the Copa del Rey.

23-year-old winger Marc Prat is pushing for a start against the Catalan powerhouses after scoring in two consecutive league contests, including the winner against Real Sociedad C last time out.

In contrast, Barcelona’s injury problems are not abating as Joao Cancelo &— who earned an MCL sprain during the LaLiga visit of Las Palmas &— joined first-choice goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen, Marcos Alonso, Gavi and Pedri in the treatment room.

Experienced centre-back Inigo Martinez is also sidelined, but his recovery is progressing well and there is a chance he could be fully fit for the Spanish Super Cup, while Xavi could give new arrival Vitor Roque a chance to gain high confidence.
