Barcelona just about have one foot in the Copa del Rey final thanks to a 1-0 aggregate lead over Real Madrid from the first leg of their semi final played a little over a month ago.

They’ve since beaten Real on home turf in the league and will be confident of getting past their old rival here to take on either Osasuna or Athletic Bilbao in the final next month.

Barcelona to Win

Barcelona have won 14 of their last 17 games played in all competitions while at the Nou Camp have won seven of their last 10, drawing two and losing one. Real Madrid’s record away to Barca isn’t great with just three wins from their last nine played there but they’re in decent shape of late winning three of their last five on the road, drawing one and losing one. 

The argument can be made that Real are scoring more goals but that can be countered with the fact that Barcelona have only conceded in four of their last 12 on home soil. With such a strong defensive record we reckon there’s good value in Barca’s price to Win here. 

Barcelona to Receive the Most Cards

Real Madrid are bottom of the La Liga fair play table with just 51 league cards received this season while the Catalans have received 66. Interestingly, the hosts have received more cards against their old rivals in four of their last six meetings at the Nou Camp and with them not exactly enjoying the best disciplinary record this season there’s a very good price available for them to get more bookings here again.

Vinicius Junior to Score or Assist

Of course many will look towards Barcelona’s Robert Lewandowski or Real’s Karim Benzema to get on the scoresheet here. We think, however, there’s some better value in backing Los Blancos’ Brazilian forward Vinicius Junior to score or privide.

He’s got eight La Liga goals and assisted six so far this season, as well as scoring six and assisting three in the Champions League. In such good form we reckon he’s one of the favourites to score or assist again here.

Barcelona Over 4.5 Corners

This one is in here to really sweeten the odds for our Bet Builder. Barcelona have been averaging 5.52 corners per La Liga game this season while their home record stands at 7.08.

In recent showdowns against Carlo Ancelotti’s side, Barca have gotten at least five corners in all three of their most recent meetings at home so we’re fully expecting them to get at least five here against their old foes.
