Valladolid Team News
Valladolid is in a difficult situation after losing 2:0 away to Cadiz in the last round, in a direct clash between the teams in the fight for survival in the league. That failure meant that Valladolid was in 18th position in the table three rounds before the end of the championship, so if they did not improve their performance in the remaining matches, the club would relegate.
In the last round of La Liga, Valladolid welcomes Getafe on its home field, so who will relegate may be decided in that match. The positive about the upcoming game with Barca is that the Catalans have already won the league title and entered this match after a big celebration.
Coach Paolo Pezzolano is worried about his team’s streak of five consecutive defeats and the fact that, after last-placed Elche, they are the team with the worst offense and the worst defense in the league, which the visitors could brutally punish on Tuesday, even in a combined lineup.

Barcelona Team News
After a three-year break, Barcelona won their 27th Spanish league title, and the last time they did it was in the 2018/19 season. Although Xavi is criticized by many for not achieving a significant result in Europe, there is no doubt that everyone at the club will agree that this season has been very successful for the Catalans.
On Saturday, they lost to Real Sociedad 1:2 at home, and it was Barca’s first defeat against Sociedad at the Camp Nou Stadium since 1991. However, since that day was reserved for celebrating the new trophy in front of their fans, the result was secondary.
Barcelona does not want another match to pass in the same rhythm and break another long-standing record with another failure. Barca had not lost a game against Valladolid in La Liga since March 2014, when they were defeated 1:0 at the Jose Zorrilla Stadium, after which they had seven triumphs.

Valladolid vs Barcelona Prediction
