Barcelona are seeing an average of 4.0 goals per game this season under Hansi Flick, comfortably the highest in the league.

In all competitions, the Catalans have seen both teams to score land in seven out of ten games when playing away.

Celta Vigo are not too far off Barcelona, sitting on an average of 3.23 goals per game. However, their games have generally been more closely contested, with both teams to score landing in six out of eight games at the Balaidos Stadium.

Head-to-head fixtures between these two sides last season were goal-laden, with both teams to score landing in each match. Barcelona won 3-2 at home, before also pulling off a 2-1 win in Vigo.

Marc Casado has emerged as a reliable holding midfielder this season under Hansi Flick, with his strong performances earning him his first call-up to the Spanish national squad. He started in their most recent game against Switzerland.

Marc Casado has committed the most fouls for the Catalans this season, averaging 1.59 fouls per 90 in all competitions. That rises slightly to 1.65 fouls per 90 when playing away.

Casado has also registered the most tackles this season for Barcelona, averaging 3.02 per game. His willingness to duel in an attempt to sustain pressure is what makes him so valuable to Hansi Flick, but also a great target for fouls.

Celta Vigo are drawing an average of 13.14 fouls per game – the third-highest in the league, making them a good matchup here.

Casado should find duels with Iago Aspas, who has a tendency to play off his main striker, dropping deeper into midfield in attempts to create chances.

Aspas has been fouled at least twice in eight out of ten starts this term, averaging 2.12 fouls drawn per 90.

Although he missed the game against Real Madrid, Aspas drew exactly two fouls against Atletico Madrid earlier in the season.

Similarly, Aspas landed this selection in both head-to-head games last season against Barcelona, as he drew two fouls at the Olimpic Companys Stadium in Barcelona, before a notable five fouls won in the reverse fixture.

He will be used as an outlet on Saturday, potentially finding himself isolated at times. His ability to draw fouls will be useful to drag Celta Vigo out of their defensive half.

Celta Vigo play a relatively open and expansive style, reflected in their high goals per game. Such a system can often leave them exposed in transition, forcing them into conceding cynical fouls.

They have accrued two or more cards in five of their seven games at home this season, failing against Getafe and Girona having managed just one card.

Celta Vigo have landed this bet against both Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid already this term.

The main focus here is on Barcelona though, who have drawn two or more cards from their opponents in 16 out of 17 games in all competitions this campaign. The only team to fail to hit the line was Getafe, shown just one card.

After starting the season strong, registering three goals in three games for his new club, Dani Olmo missed several games with a thigh injury. However, he seems to have returned to full fitness, recently starting in the Nations League against Denmark.

He played an important role in that victory for Spain, picking up an assist. He also managed two shots, with one on target.

Despite being benched against Real Sociedad, Dani Olmo should be pushing to start, particularly in the absence of Lamine Yamal.

The former RB Leipzig man has settled well into life in Spain, scoring five league goals already despite only starting three games. He is averaging 4.26 shots per 90, one of the highest values in the Barcelona squad.

Barcelona were poor last time out against Real Sociedad, as they struggled massively against a high press. Despite the narrow 1-0 scoreline, La Real were totally dominant, amassing 2.02 xG compared to 0.64 xG from the visitors.

Barcelona goalkeeper Inaki Pena was a standout performer in the end, as he made five saves to keep the scoreline competitive. La Real managed 14 shots in total, with four big chances.

Celta Vigo are an equally intense pressing side, and could cause Barcelona problems in a similar setup. They forced four saves against both Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid, respectively, at home already this season.

Meanwhile, this selection has landed in five out of eight games for Barcelona when playing away.

Inigo Martinez is averaging 0.95 fouls drawn per 90 for Barcelona this season, operating in a centre back role.

This leg has landed in each of his last five games in all competitions, as Martinez has a tendency to contest aerial duels and draw contact effectively.

When playing away, Martinez is averaging 1.14 fouls drawn per 90, landing this selection in seven out of nine games.

He will likely be up against Borja Iglesias, an extremely physical striker which promises to be a good matchup. Iglesias is averaging 1.43 fouls per 90 this season, making two or more fouls in six of his last seven starts. He has even been more aggressive at home, averaging 1.85 fouls per 90.

Carl Starfelt will slot into a role at centre back on the opposite side of the field on Saturday, which should put him in duels against Robert Lewandowski.

The Poland international has drawn a foul in 14 out of 17 games this season in all competitions, averaging 1.62 fouls won per 90 – only Alejandro Balde and Lamine Yamal boast a higher count.

This season, the Swede is averaging just 0.79 fouls per 90, but has notably landed this bet in each of his last seven games.

With that in mind, odds of 1.73 look especially good value, considering it also landed in this head-to-head matchup last season at the Balaidos Stadium.
