Catalan giants Barcelona host newly promoted Real Valladolid in La Liga on Sunday evening.

After a thoroughly anticlimactic 0-0 draw against Rayo Vallecano to open the campaign, Xavi Hernandez's side got their season going with a 4-1 win away to Real Sociedad last weekend - although the performance was far less convincing than the scoreline suggests.

Bouncing back to the top flight at the first time of asking, Valladolid were dealt a devilish fixture list to open the campaign, facing three clubs from last season's top seven on the spin.

Here's everything you need to know about the meeting between two teams with contrasting ambitious for the season ahead.

Real Valladolid team news

Jawad El Yamiq limped out of Valladolid's match away to Sevilla last weekend inside the opening half-hour with a hip problem. Yet, he wasn't injured enough to illicit any pity from the referee who brandished a red card in his direction on the bench after an altercation in the closing minutes of the game.

Pacheta has had to start the campaign without last season's top scorer Shon Weissman as the Israeli international remains sidelined with a hamstring complaint. Gonzalo Plata is also a doubt with an ankle injury.

Barcelona vs Real Valladolid score prediction

Camp Nou has not offered an avalanche of home comforts for Barcelona of late. In a crumbling ground which has rats running across the roof, the Blaugrana have taken just seven points from their last six La Liga home matches, failing to score in four of those games.

However, Valladolid have an even worse record when travelling to the Catalonian capital. The outfit from northwestern Spain haven't beaten Barcelona at Camp Nou since November 1997, a year before Xavi made his professional debut.

They may not convince just yet, but Barcelona and their glut of talented teenagers should be able to overcome their freshly promoted foes.

Prediction: Barcelona 2-1 Real Valladolid
