Hansi Flick\u2019s men returned to winning ways on the weekend, though, the Blaugrana thrashing Deportivo Alaves 6-1 in front of their fans &#8211; with Raphinha bagging yet another La Liga brace.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Aston Villa are three from three in the Champions League having most recently beat Viking 3-1 at home. Emery\u2019s men then defeated Manchester City 2-1 at Villa Park in the Premier League, before losing 3-0 at Bournemouth in the EFL Cup. The Villans could only muster a 1-1 draw with Fulham on the weekend, a disappointing result given their recent form.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Head-to-head record<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is Barcelona and Aston Villa\u2019s first meeting in the Champions League.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The two sides clashed in the 1977-78 edition of the UEFA Cup, a 2-2 draw at Villa Park followed by a 2-1 Barca win at Camp Nou.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Then the teams met in the 1983 UEFA Super Cup, a two-legged tie which saw Barca claim a 1-0 home victory before suffering a 3-0 defeat at Villa.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Team news<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Amadou Onana and Matteo Ruggeri remain long-term absentees for Aston Villa, while Aaron Wan-Bissaka rates as a strong injury doubt and is unlikely to feature here.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dani Olmo is still on the sidelines for Barcelona, so expect in-form Fermin Lopez to retain a starting berth. At the back, Jules Kounde, Eric Garcia, Xavi Espart and Andreas Christensen are all ruled out &#8211; leaving Flick with some big defensive calls to make.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Barcelona vs Aston Villa Odds<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><b>*All odds are subject to change<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Barcelona are clear favourites ahead of kick-off at a price of 1.27. A victory for Aston Villa is at odds of 8.30, while the draw is 6.90.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Barcelona vs Aston Villa Betting Tips<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Anytime goalscorer &#8211; Lamine Yamal @ 1.75<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Raphinha is perhaps the standout option from a Barcelona standpoint, but we are backing Yamal here. The teenager scored away at PSG last time out, and boasts 10 goals from 11 La Liga appearances after netting twice against Racing on the weekend. Typically ridiculous numbers from a player eager to respond to his third-place Ballon d\u2019Or finish.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Anytime goalscorer &#8211; Nicolas Jackson @ 3.00<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Barca concede goals as well as score them, with Flick\u2019s side failing to keep a clean sheet in each of the last five matches. Step forward, Jackson. The Villa striker has eight goals in his last 10 appearances across all competitions, including seven in the previous seven matches. His pace and crafty runs could really trouble Barca\u2019s high defensive line.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Total goals &#8211; Over 3.5 @ 1.49<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another Barca game, another pick focused on a high number of goals. This bet landed in four of the Spanish side\u2019s previous five games, the only exception being the El Clasico defeat. And the selection was also a winner in all three of Villa\u2019s Champions League games thus far, with wins recorded over Club Brugge (2-3), Fenerbahce (6-0) and Viking (3-1). Goals feel inevitable at Camp Nou, and that is certainly not the last time we will say that this season!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>When you choose NetBet Sport, you can enjoy a whole range of top-quality sports and markets.
