Pedri was influential again during the week as Barcelona came away 7-2 winners over Newcastle and progressed to the quarter finals of the Champions League. Pedri was hauled down three times in that game from 78 touches in total - with these being regular numbers for a player of Pedri’s quality.

Pedri’s ability to win fouls is largely influenced by how much control he is able to have over games. Pedri is averaging over 100 touches per game for Barcelona in LaLiga this season, as well as completing over 80 passes per game - telling us that Pedri sees more of the ball than any other Barcelona player, making him an ideal candidate to be fouled a few times here.

Rayo Vallecano committed 16 fouls when these sides met earlier in the season, with Pedri being on the receiving end of four of these fouls. Pedri has won 29 fouls across his 15 starts in LaLiga this term (1.91 per 90), as well as winning a further 19 fouls across just seven starts in the Champions League (3.05 per 90).

There is excellent value with this angle when backing with Bet365, the exact same selection is priced as low as 1.36 with other leading bookmakers.
