Barcelona will play in front of the home supporters at the Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys on Monday when they welcome visitors Valencia in a one-on-one La Liga clash scheduled to kick off at 19:00 GMT.
Barcelona’s four-match winning streak in La Liga was ended in the Clasico when they were beaten 3-2 in a pulsating and controversial match.
The defeat means that the Blaugrana are two points ahead of third placed Girona in the run in, and that their berth as runners up to expected Champions real Madrid is under threat.
The defeat in Madrid came hot on the heels of the 1-4 home defeat against PSG that saw the Ligue 1 side overturn a first leg deficit to progress into the semi-final against Borussia Dortmund.
Barcelona will look to bounce back to winning ways when they host Valencia on Monday.
Valencia have had a steady season this time around, with 13 wins and 8 draws. They have amassed 47 points and sit 8th on the La Liga table, within touching distance of European places.
In their last five outings, the Mestalla side have won two times, drawn once, and lost twice. They need to gain some consistency if they are to get something from the clash away to Barcelona and realize their ambitions of returning to European football next season.
They will look for a statement-making win against a wounded Barcelona as they push to climb into the European places in La Liga.
Bet hereBarcelona have been dominant in the fixture against Valencia in recent matches. La Blaugrana have won four times in the last five meetings, with the other ending in a draw. Barcelona have kept two clean sheets in this run of five matches against Valencia.
Barcelona will miss the inured Gavi, Alejandro Balde, and Frenkie de Jong in their home clash against Valencia.
Valencia will be without Mouctar Diakhaby and Roman Yaremchuk for the trip to Barcelona on Monday.
Barcelona are the favorites to win the match and return to winning ways in La Liga, thus fortifying their place as runners up in La Liga.
