Barcelona Set to Face Valencia Amid Camp Nou Renovations

Barcelona, Spain – FC Barcelona will host Valencia this Sunday, September 14, at 9 PM local time, but the match will be held at the Johan Cruyff Stadium due to ongoing renovations at Camp Nou. The new venue, with a seating capacity of just 6,000, will provide an intimate setting for the La Liga showdown.

The match marks the fourth week of the Liga season, and Barcelona comes into this match with 7 points from three games. After a strong start, including a 3-0 victory over Mallorca and a thrilling 3-2 comeback win against Levante, the team has shown good form under manager Hansi Flick.

In contrast, Valencia has had a mixed beginning, securing only 4 points from their first three matches. They drew against Real Sociedad and suffered a narrow loss to Osasuna, but bounced back with a solid 3-0 win against Getafe. Valencia will be looking to build on this momentum as they face the formidable Barcelona side.

Historically, Barcelona holds the upper hand in their recent encounters, winning four of the last five matches against Valencia. But with this game preceding their Champions League debut against Newcastle on September 18, the Catalans are eager to maintain their unbeaten streak in the league.

This match will be broadcast live on beIN Sports. Fans can follow the action and support their teams as Barcelona aims to extend its lead over rivals Real Madrid, who currently sit two points ahead in the league standings.
