Team News
Celta Vigo
Barcelona
- Celta Vigo are expected to switch to a three-man defensive line with wing-backs to face Barcelona this week.
- Nestor Araujo should come into the side at centre-back, while Kevin could feature at right wing-back over Hugo Mallo.
- Santi Mina could get a rare start up front to partner Iago Aspas, while Brais Mendez could be preferred to Emre Mor in behind.
- Ansu Fati should feature out on the left-hand side once again for Barcelona after scoring twice against Villarreal.
- Philippe Coutinho should also continue in attack for the visitors after returning to La Liga action positively at the weekend.
- No changes are expected from Ronald Koeman after a strong start from the new coach in domestic action.
Messi and Fati bossing that game. ;-)
It's good to see Barcelona winning in style and Messi is not the main factor of it.
@neumi17 , Messi was indeed, one of the key players for Barça. You can argue that Fati was the main player, but I'd say they were both influential. Nothing much between them.
The ratings on messi are unfair. He deserved a 8.
@nceshNcero cope harder, the midge is on the way out
@nceshNcero Why did you post that twice ? And why does he deserve an 8 ?
@neumi17 , Messi was literally the main creator of chances for Barça, besides Fati. He dazzled Celta's defenders to create the second goal. He was everywhere, making supportive movements, opening spaces, making the ball flow, creating havoc (and was unlucky not to score two). How much more do you need for a 8 performance?
@alex_74 So why didn't he get an 8 then with his 2 key passes and 2 shots ?
@nceshNcero nope, he deserved no more than 7.
@GioMonaldo , disagree. Messi deserved a 8.
GRIEZMAN must Leave barca. He is out.
@nceshNcero if he keeps flopping like this, he will be gone before Christmas.
This rating is wrong for messi. At least a 8
thats more like it, faster passing and movement off the ball.. even the grandpas seemed agile. more of this and maybe theyll stand a chance in the ucl
Messi is still very important for barca. That was messi goal
Messi need to play as a right wing, not a 9. He is to old to play as a 9. He is a great 10.
The red card messed up everthing.
It's the l Position messi is playing. I can wait to watch this game and see what is messi doing?
Finally, Messi is no more rated highest! Congratulations for Barcelona!
@brucelian nonsense.
@nceshNcero What is it with you and your obsession for Messi ? Barcelona wins but for you the most important thing is that Messi is rated the highest ?
@brucelian This is good sign for Barca, dont get me wrong, I love Messi to the core; and he and Frankie are one of the best press escapers at this time. Look at Bayern, every of their players are capable of scoring, so it's fantastic for a team to see a number of players on the scoreboard each game. Messi contributed massively in 2 of 3 goals this match. Beautiful!
We have a great team this season is going to be something else..
Fati and Greenwood = new Ronaldo vs Messi :)
@koziol.mutant green what? Lol
@CrazyBarcaFan00 maybe he meant deadwood
Second consecutive MOTM for Fati. The kid is definitely not overrated.
Thankfully my barca win and over 2.5 won
legend sergi roberto with another 95 minute goal what a lord lmao
@Lulzovich Least important goal of the game.
@Fromhell you are really smart, aren't you?
0-1 final score. Celta Vigo attack is poor
I DIDN'T BELIVE TO SAY THIS BUT I THINK MESSI IS STARTING TO BE IN THE SHADOW OF THIS FATI KID...WHAT A WONDERFUL GOAL..SEE HOW HE IS CONTROLLING THE BALL AND HOW IS HITING IT...I WISH THAT REAL MADRID HAVE A PLAYER LIKE THIS...
@alexandrion91 True, Messi is in Fati's shadow but don't worry, he can use his shiny Ballons d'Or to brighten things up ;)
@alexandrion91 Okay
@alexandrion91 Why do you write in capital letters ?
@neumi17 he is doing it to highlight how big idiot he is
@tonystarKK lol
over3,5, bts, late goal. :) 2-2 or 2-3
1:3 for Barca
Barca to win and over 2.5 match goals @ 2.15 odds
Over 3,5 yellow cards in match
2-1 in favour of Barca
Celta at home have always been a pain for us, and especially with Aspas in form. Hopefully the team can carry last week's momentum and get a win
Payback time...
