Barcelona - Celta Vigo live online: score, stats and updates, LaLiga ... (AS English)

Camp Nou is the setting for the last of Sunday's games as Xavi's side will look for the win that will take the Catalan side back to the LaLiga summit.

The Catalan's form in Europe is a different story where they are in a tight spot in a tough group after back-to-back defeats to Bayern Munich and Inter Milan. It was great when Greece won the Euros and it was really special when Leicester won the league in England. Barcelona have been on a tremendous run since the 2022-23 LaLiga campaign got underway in August and are currently on a six game winning run. Celta Vigo, meanwhile, have had an up-and-down start to the campaign. Still nothing to trouble Marchesin in the Celta goal however. A start at Camp Nou very much in keeping with the script... It’s special and healthy for the game when a smaller club beats a big one. Remember Coudet the Celta coach is not in the Catalan capital this evening as he had to return to his native Argentina for personal reasons. The game resumes and the German stays on the pitch but looks to be moving awkwardly. Celta now well in the game. Barcelona free and the Catalan side opt to go short. the visitors have yet to manage a shot on goal.

For the third consecutive game, Barcelona put in a poor performance. Fortunately for the Catalans, Marc-Andre ter Stegen saved their blushes.

If they want to avoid the embarrassment of failing to qualify out of the group stage, they need a win against Inter. But the display is certainly going to be a point of worry for both Xavi and the players. It was left dangerously in the area as Pedri raced for a tap-in.
