While Barcelona might have shown signs of struggles this season, they have been nothing short of brilliant whenever they lineup on home turf.

Heading into this fixture, Barcelona had played five league matches and won all five, scoring 21 goals and conceding six.

The Blaugrana were on a brilliant run of form at home which has seen them go 29 matches without defeat at Camp Nou in all competitions, with their last home loss coming in the 4-3 reversal to Real Betis in November 2018.

This showed the scale of the job at hand for Celta and from the moment Messi put the hosts ahead, there was never any doubt over who would end the day with all three points.

By contrast, they have been atrocious on their travels, with all three of their defeats this term coming in away fixtures, while they also dropped points in the 2-2 draw with Osasuna at the El Sadar.

Barcelona are almost invincible at home and the win against Celta Vigo means they have gone 30 games in all competitions without defeat, but if they are to successfully retain their league title, Valverde must find a way to solve his side's away day blues.
