The La Liga champions face a tough clash this weekend from one of the most impressive teams in the division and we are backing the visitors to score

Barcelona vs Getafe Preview

Setien has been in charge of the Spanish champions for seven matches in all competitions during which time the side have kept just two clean sheets.

Those shutouts came against Granada and Leganes, two sides who are far from boasting the firepower of Getafe.

The side from the south of Madrid are the fifth top scorers in La Liga and in Jaime Mata, Jorge Molina and Angel Rodriguez they possess a trio of forwards who are in superb form.

In their 11 league games at the Camp Nou this term, Barcelona have kept just three clean sheets and there should be plenty of interest in backing the visitors to get on the scoresheet.
