Barcelona are back in LaLiga action this afternoon as the Spanish table-toppers face a trip to Valencia.

Quique Setien has won his first two games in charge - a 1-0 LaLiga victory over Granada followed by a nervy 2-1 Copa del Rey comeback in Ibiza - and needs another three points here to keep title challengers Real Madrid at bay.

Date: Saturday, January 25, 2020.

Kick-off time: 3pm GMT

Prediction: Valencia 1-2 Barcelona

Barca have not been beaten by Valencia in their last three LaLiga meetings, and it should be the case again here - especially with Lionel Messi back.
