BARCELONA V REAL ZARAGOZA PREDICTIONS AND PREVIEW: BETTING STATS AND FACTS

Barcelona is top of la liga with 31 points from 11 matches and have been almost perfect this season.  They have scored 3.27 goals per game while conceding 1.27.  Their last 5 matches have seen 4 wins and a draw, scoring 19 goals and conceding 9, all 5 matches have ended over 2.5 goals.

Real Zaragoza sits in 10^th place in the table with 15 points from 11 matches, winning 5 and losing 6 of their matches.  They have averaged 1.27 goals per game while conceding 1.64.  Their last 5 matches have seen 3 wins and 2 losses, with 9 goals scored and 10 goals conceded, 4 of the 5 have ended with over 2.5 goals.

TEAM NEWS AND RUN OF PLAY

Barcelona are begging to get some of their important players back from injury.  Gerard Pique will make his second start since returning from a long term injury which will give Barcelona’s shaky defence a boost.  It won’t be long until Carlos Puyol also returns to give Barcelona their first choice centre back pairing again for the first time in months.

Going forward they still have a plethora of options with Iniesta, Pedro and Sanchez all being rested in the last match and will likely rotate with Fabregas, Tello and David Villa.  They are having no trouble scoring goals with a huge 19 in their last 5 la liga matches.

Zaragoza has no new injury worries from last week’s 5-3 win over Deportivo.  Jose Mari is still out with a knee injury he picked up the week before against Real Madrid but the side should be unchanged from last week.  Gelder Postiga will again lead the line and has been in fine form this year with 6 goals in 11 appearances, he will have a tough job closing down the Barcelona defence and not letting them build easily from the back.

BARCELONA V REAL ZARAGOZA PREDICTIONS: 1X2 BETTING PREVIEW

Barcelona are huge favourites for this one and it is little surprise.  They have won 7 of 8 home matches this year, the only blip a 2-2 draw with Real Madrid.  They should have easily enough quality to see off this Zaragoza side.

Barcelona are best priced with William Hill at 1.10.

BARCELONA - REAL ZARAGOZA PREDICTIONS: ASIAN HANDICAP PREVIEW

The Asian Market rates a Barcelona win as almost a formality.  They have the handicap set at a massive Barcelona -3, this means a 4 goal victory is needed to win the bet.

Of their 7 home wins this year, Barcelona have won just once by 4 goals, and none by 3 goals.  4 of their wins have been by just 1 goal, with 2 by 2 goals.

Because of this I have to think Zaragoza +3 has the value here and is available at 1.85 with 188bet.

BARCELONA - REAL ZARAGOZA PREDICTIONS: TOTAL GOALS PREVIEW

Barcelona have seen an average of 5.6 goals per match over their last 5 la liga games, this is a huge amount and shows not only their attacking prowess but also the fragility of their defence.  Zaragoza has seen 2.8 goals per game over the same period.

Instead of looking at the normal 2.5 I will view Over/Under 3.5 goals.  I think the market may be too bullish on goals in this one despite the huge totals put up by Barcelona recently.

You can back Under 3.5 Goals at a huge 2.40 with Betsson which is the value bet for me.
