Barcelona - Real Sociedad

Victor Valdes was the only Barcelona player who didn't score more than Xabi Alonso's 40 in their destruction of Real Madrid. They also had the top five players in their match against VillarealReal Sociedad have featured twice on Picklive and haven't had a player score more than 50 (both home matches) so I will going with all five players and can't seriously recommend any of their players! 

So which 5 Barcelona players do you want in your team?! I think there will be a lot of people with the same teams! Xavi has to be in most BG teams and there is something wrong with you if he doesn't get into yours! I think Iniesta and Busquets will have to be in your BG team if you want to win. I am sure most people will be going with Messi and why not? He managed to get 71 even without a goal against Madrid - considering he has scored 56 in 51 matches for Barcelona this year, the chances are he's going to get another...  The three for me that could differentiate your team from others is Alves, Pedro and Villa. Alves is very consistent and can score highly (91 vs Villareal). David Villa will need a goal or two to get more than 50 really but is worth a gamble I think tonight. Pedro is another who would probably need a goal. 

  • Barcelona have won 15 of the last 16 against RS including last 12
  • Catalans are unbeaten in 12, winning 11
  • Messi has scored 10 of his 15 goals away from home.
  • RS have won their last two matches
  • Barcelona have not conceded in their last three and only two in their last seven.
  • Barcelona have scored three or more goals in their last 6
  • RS have lost four of their seven away matches
