Goal Statistics

FC Barcelona's defensive record is to be admired, H. Flick's men having conceded 1 or less in 5 consecutive La Liga games. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.3 for Celta de Vigo makes sense in this context.

FC Barcelona's forwards have been in fine form of late, scoring 2 goals or more in 3 consecutive La Liga outings. A PG of 2.0 suggests that run should continue on Saturday night.
