- Racinguistas have lost 2 LaLiga 2026/2027 matches
- Barcelona have won their last 5 consecutive matches in all competitions
Barcelona at the top of the tree
Barcelona are 5 from 5 in all competitions heading into the visit of Racing Santander on Wednesday, having thumped Rayo Vallecano 5-2, thrashed Valencia 5-0 and put another 5 goals past Feyenoord. Hans-Dieter Flick's side look to have a very strong balance to their team at the moment and have already won 3 successive home games in all competitions, so the hosts should have little trouble setting the tone at the Spotify Camp Nou.
Racing Santander will provide a very different test to the previous visitors to Spotify Camp Nou, however. Jose Lopez has kept the Racinguistas' possession football flexible and relationship-based, but they'll need to have their defensive line even cleaner than usual to withstand Barcelona's high-line, high-tempo game. Racinguistas have won 1, drawn 1 and lost 3 of their last 5 competitive games, and back-to-back defeats in LaLiga 2026/2027 have dented any momentum they might have had.
Barça should have the edge
Barça are a different beast to any Racinguistas have played so far and they should have the momentum and quality to win this one handily. They have already put 2 goals past Racinguistas in the Copa del Rey 2025/2026 in a 2-0 away victory and the odds of 1.12 reflect the gap in class between these two clubs. The visitors are 9.7 to take anything from this game and the draw is at 9.7, which is also very generous, given that Barcelona have won 2 from 2 at home in 2026/2027 with just 2 goals conceded.
Goals should flow at the Camp Nou
Barcelona's firepower should win through in this one and over 2.5 goals at 1.17 seems a good fit to the hosts' current goal-scoring ability. Both teams to score looks live at 1.75 if Racing can find a way through once, so this could be a lively game that never really flat-lines.
The goal-scoring form of both sides is a factor to consider in this matchup. Raphinha has 6 goals already for Barça in 2026/2027 and is probably their chief menace at the moment. He could have a great game against a Racinguistas side that is still finding its way. Yassir Zabiri has 3 in 4 for Racinguistas and is their biggest threat to the Barça defence, with Zabiri also on the scoresheet 4 of the Racinguistas' 8 goals in their last 5 matches.
