Barcelona collide with Ronaldo-owned Real Valladolid in La Liga on Sunday, with Camp Nou staging the game. Xavi's side got the season off to a slow start with a scoreless draw against Rayo Vallecano, but exploded into life with a convincing 4-1 victory over Real Sociedad the following week and they will be eager to gather momentum in front of the home fans.
Newly promoted Valladolid suffered a heavy 3-0 defeat at home to Villarreal in their opening game of the campaign, but steadied the ship somewhat with a 1-1 draw against Sevilla last time out. However, things do not get any easier with a trip to the heart of Catalunya coming up.
