Barcelona vs Oviedo Prediction & Betting Tips (25 January)

End of series for FC Barcelona who lost on the lawn of Real Sociedad last weekend 2-1. In a pretty crazy scenario, the Catalans managed to come back to the score through Marcus Rashford but, in the process, Goncalo Guedes, on a pass from Carlos Soler, allowed the Basques to get back in front and no longer lose the lead. Before this setback, Barça had 9 successive victories in La Liga and above all 11 successes in all competitions including the coronation in the Spanish Super Cup with a victory inflicted on Athletic Bilbao in the semi-final 5-0 and a 3rd final won against Real Madrid 3-2. In La Liga, this same Real Madrid had the opportunity to take back control of the championship in the event of a victory at Villarreal. This week, Barça had a lot to do in the Champions League on the lawn of Slavia Prague but finally extricated itself from the Czech trap 2-4 victory, placing it back in 9th place in the league phase.

For its part, Real Oviedo fully expected to suffer in the 1st division because of its inexperience at this level of the competition since the club had not experienced the elite for more than 20 years. Logically bottom of the championship with only 13 points, the Carbayones recorded a 13th match without a win in La Liga, losing last weekend against Osasuna 3-2. The first defeat in 2026 for Oviedo which had limited the damage by hanging three draws against Betis Sevilla 1-1, Alaves 1-1 and Celta Vigo 0-0. 

It's official: Marc-André Ter Stegen, former captain of this team, has been sent on loan to Girona, ready to relaunch a few months before the World Cup. Injured for a while at the start of the season, Raphinha (7 goals, 3 assists in La Liga) did not take part in the trip to Real Sociedad, but returned to Prague in the Champions League. Finally, it was Lamine Yamal (7 goals, 8 assists in La Liga) who was not in the ranks during the week (uncertain). Midfielder Gavi and defender Andreas Christensen will be out, as will the imperial and very essence of the Barcelona game: Pedri, injured in the back of the thigh against Prague and possibly 3-4 weeks on the floor.

Right back Joao Cancelo signed this winter. Marcus Rashford (7 goals, 9 assists in Liga + C1) revived hope against the Basques, in vain. Forwards Ferran Torres (11 goals in La Liga) and Robert Lewandowski (9 goals in La Liga), scorer during the week against Slavia Prague (first goal in C1 this season) will be present.
