Predictions
Combo Double chance : Barcelona or draw and +1.5 goals
Barcelona are struggling a bit, having lost three of their last five games, including a heavy defeat in their most recent match. Newcastle's form has been mixed, with two wins, a draw, and two losses from their last five, but they are coming off a win. The two teams just played to a draw last week, and their previous meeting this season was a close game won by Newcastle.
Given Barcelona's recent difficulties at home and the fact these teams are very closely matched, this looks set to be another tight and competitive game. A draw is the most likely outcome.
