Barcelona vs Granada. Are the "blue garnet" rehabilitated for the fiasco from Bavaria?
On Monday, September 20th, at the Camp Nou in Barcelona, the team of the same name will host Granada.
The Catalans started the season indistinctly. First, we won a bright victory over Real Sociedad (4-2), making the fans nervous in the end, because Sergi Roberto “put an end” in the meeting only in stoppage time. Then they took away only one point from Bilbao, having scored an effective draw with Athletic (1-1), and the team's newcomer Memphis Depay scored a goal. The Dutchman also scored in the third round, in a home game against Getafe, bringing a modest and laborious victory: 2-1. Last weekend, Koeman's team was supposed to play against Sevilla, but the match was postponed due to the problematic schedule of the South American teams. In the standings, Barcelona is in 7th place, three points behind the leaders.
On Tuesday, the “blue garnet” lost with a bang at the Camp Nou of Bayern (0-3) in the Champions League, did not strike a single shot on target of Neuer. In addition, Pedri and Alba dropped out indefinitely.
Granada
Last season, under the leadership of Diego Martinez, the Nasrid played great in the Europa League (quarter-finals), and finished the championship in 8th place. The team started the new season with Robert Moreno, who has very little experience as a head coach. In the first two rounds of Examples Granada was able to take points from strong opponents (0-0 with Villarreal and 1-1 with Valencia), however, two subsequent matches were lost (0-4 Rayo Vallecano and 1-2 Betis). As a result, only two points scored and a low 17th place.
Both teams are not impressive right now, but this does not surprise us, because we believe that there are no prospects with the current coaches. Barcelona, most likely, will win in the class, but it will not be some kind of bright and confident victory, so you can safely take “Granada with Handicap (+2.0)” for 1.59 or “Barcelona Under (2.5)” for 1.74 ... From bets on performance, the option with "Total Under (4.0)" for 1.37 seems to be a win-win.
