- Recent run: Barça have won their last 5 matches in all competitions.
Barca are on fire in all departments
Form and home goals
Barça come into Saturday's game with Getafe in red-hot form, winning their last 5 in a row in all comps in what has been a ruthless streak of results. They have won 3 of their 3 home games in LaLiga 2026/2027, putting four past Levante, seven against Racing Santander and three at Sevilla.
Style and key man
Hansi Flick's side are playing at a high tempo with a high line and an aggressive counter-press and that suits the in-form Brazilian Raphinha perfectly. He is the spark for this Barca side, who have scored 14 goals in their 3 home matches this season, with nine of Barca's last 23 goals coming from the winger. He looks like the best anytime goal scorer pick for Saturday's clash.
Getafe are set up to frustrate
Tactics and approach
Getafe are a much more compact, battle-hardened team who relish the duel. José Bordalás has them set up to play a battle of attrition, they love to get men behind the ball and run at possession-heavy teams on the break.
Recent form and issues
There is little to suggest they will be a threat to Barça here, unless they can create some chaos in transition play.
- Their latest run has seen them tie 1-1 with Deportivo de A Coruna, lose 1-0 at Real Betis and win 1-0 at home to Malaga.
- Getafe have been poor on the road in this early phase of the 2026/2027 campaign, taking 0 points from 3 matches and failing to register a goal in those games.
- Enes Unal is their top goal scorer in this LaLiga 2026/2027 campaign, but he has just 1 to his name after 7 appearances.
- The Azulones need to find more in the box and have to look to nick something here.
Champions will win
Barcelona are in red-hot form for a reason and that's because they have been playing very well this season. The odds will hold them up as the obvious choice and the over 2.5 goals at 1.2 and BTTS - No at 1.65 look to offer solid value in this one.
Barça should win this game and if the visitors can drag it into a scrap, the goals might be slightly limited. Otherwise, it could be a wide-open game at the Spotify Camp Nou, Spain with Barça coming out on top.
