Barcelona v Man Utd Prediction – Preview
F.C. Barcelona
Barcelona are in the UEL playoff round after finishing third in the UCL’s Group C. They did, however, end their campaign on a high note, seeing off Plzeñ 4-2. Ferran Torres netted a brace, while Marcos Alonso and Pablo Torre scored in either half to complete the scoreline. The Xavi-led side were also relentless domestically, having advanced to the Copa del Rey semi-final by beating Real Sociedad 1-0. More importantly, they continue their reign over La Liga, with their latest conquest being Villarreal, 1-0. But even without the injured Sergio Busquets and Ousmane Dembele, could they dominate against an in-form Man Utd side?
Barcelona have lost 5 of their last 11 games in Europe at Camp Nou (W2 D4). The previous 5 such losses were spread in 101 matches between 2002 and 2020.
Robert Lewandowski hadnetted 45 goals in his last 37 matches in Europe. He has been involved in 9 goals in his last 3 appearances against English teams (2 against Tottenham in October 2019; 1 goal and 2 assists against Chelsea in February 2020 and another 2 goals and 2 assists against Chelsea in August 2020). This is his first match against Man Utd.
Manchester United F.C.
Manchester United finished second in UEL group E, only surpassed by Real Sociedad on goal difference. On the last day of competition, the Red Devils narrowly beat the group leaders 1-0 at the Reale Arena. Alejandro Garnacho fired the difference-making goal on 17 minutes, assisted by now-former United forward Cristiano Ronaldo. But even with the legendary Portuguese departing their camp, the Erik ten Hag-led squad have been impressive domestically, as they qualified for the EFL Cup final and solidified their hold on 3rd in the Premier League table. Most recently, they defeated Leeds United 2-0 after they drew them 2-2 in the previous week. Can the boys survive their first international knockout in the Ten Hag era?
Man Utd have lost in each of the last 4 games in this fixture. The last team the Red Devils lost five straight games against was Liverpool between 2000 and 2002.
Man Utd have won each of their last 5 games in Europe. Only once prior have they won 6 matches consecutively in a European tournament: in the first 6 matches of the 1965-66 season of the European Cup.

Barcelona v Man Utd Prediction – Final Thoughts
This will be a match to stay tuned for, as both sides are making waves in their respective countries. However, Man Utd have been the shakier side, despite brilliant moments from the likes of Marcus Rashford and Casemiro. Barcelona will enjoy the loud crowd of Camp Nou, and Robert Lewandowski and company look to unleash frustrations of their UCL exit with the dynamic Red Devils squad. Thus, we give the Blaugrana the slight edge in this one. With that, let’s take a look at our prediction.
