Barcelona
Rayo Vallecano and Barcelona square off against each other in Madrid in the closing match of Wednesday’s program. Los Vallecanos aim to recover from a 2-1 loss to Real Sociedad, and we are positive that they will fight tooth and nail against Barca. Midfielder Santi Comesana is banned for the match, while there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
The Catalan outfit, on the other hand, aim to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Atletico Madrid. Considering that Xavi can count on key players for the midweek showdown, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the league leaders. Sergio Busquets serves a one-game ban, while all Christensen, Dembele, and Roberto should miss out with injuries. In the first half of the season the two teams played out a boring goalless draw, but away win should be considered this time out.
Highlighted Player (Robert Lewandowski):
After scoring 36 goals in 59 league games for Znicz Pruskow, Robert Lewandowski joined Lech Poznan in June, 2008. The 184-cm-tall attacker scored 18 goals in 28 appearances for the club in the 2009/2010 Ekstraklasa campaign and during the season he was on Borussia Dortmund’s radar.
The Polish forward signed a four-year deal with the Bundesliga side in June, 2010 and he quickly established himself as the team’s key attacker. Lewandowski was producing excellent performances with the Millionaires between 2010 and 2014 and it has to be noted that he won two Bundesliga trophies with the club (2010/2011, 2011/2012). He participated in the 2012/2013 Champions League final with Borussia Dortmund, but the Millionaires were beaten by fellow Bundesliga side Bayern Munich in the title game.
However, he betrayed Borussia Dortmund fans in 2014 as he signed a four-year deal with the Bundesliga giants. Lewandowski impressed in the 2016/2017 Bundesliga campaign as he scored 30 goals in 32 league games for Pep Guardiola’s troops. The Polish footballer represented his homeland at Euro 2016 in France and he scored one goal at the showpiece tournament in France.
