It's too soon to know exactly how Hans-Dieter Flick's high-energy, high-pressing football will translate in Spain, but the early signs are clear - Barcelona have won five straight games in all competitions, putting five goals past Rayo Vallecano (5-2) and Valencia (5-0) and five past Feyenoord (5-1).
- Rayo Vallecano (5-2)
- Valencia (5-0)
- Feyenoord (5-1)
- Barcelona have won their last three consecutive home games.
Racing Santander
- Racing Santander have won only one of their last five games (D1, L3).
- Racing manager Jose Lopez has done a fantastic job in keeping their possession-based, relationship football flowing, but the backline will need to be extremely solid to survive Barcelona's intense pressing.
- The Racinguistas will need to improve their form after back-to-back league defeats and could struggle against a Barcelona side who have already beat them 2-0 away in the last head-to-head meeting in the 2025/2026 Copa del Rey.
