Mestalla will be packed when Valencia take on Barcelona in a highly-anticipated La Liga round-four derby. Valencia are running down a blind alley at the start of the campaign, collecting just one point from their opening three matches. Los che produced a poor display in a 3-1 defeat to Deportivo La Coruna, and changes are expected, with Hugo Duro and Danjuma both pushing for a place in the starting XI. The hosts are also without Lopez, Copete and Canos due to injuries, making an already difficult task even tougher.
Barcelona, meanwhile, are flying and will be determined to keep their 100% record intact after beating Rayo Vallecano 5-2 on Monday. The Catalans have scored 2.8 goals per game across their last 10 matches, while their overall average stands at an impressive 4.0 goals per game. Big-money signing Rodri is likely to make his full Barca debut, adding further quality to Hansi Flick’s side. Frenkie de Jong and Gavi remain sidelined through injury.
The Catalans are in superb scoring form and face a Valencia side with just one point so far. Therefore, Away Win should be considered, alongside Barcelona Over 1.5 goals and Over 2.5 goals (26 of the last 42 H2H meetings went over this line, while Barcelona’s games average 4.0 goals).
This Primera Division match will be played on Sunday 6 September 2026 at 15:15.
