Barcelona will look to move past their UCL setback against Chelsea

Matchday 14 of LaLiga 2025-26 will take us to the Camp Nou, where FC Barcelona will host Alavés in a must-see match. The home side are currently placed in 2nd spot with 31 points from their opening 13 matches. Barcelona are coming into this game after suffering a crushing 3-0 loss against Chelsea in the UEFA Champions League.

Alavés, on the other hand, are currently placed at the 14th spot in the points table. With four wins, three draws, and six losses, they have 15 points to their name so far this season. They are also coming into this game on the back of a loss and will be looking to get back to winning ways against an underconfident FC Barcelona side.

Players to watch out for:

Lamine Yamal (FC Barcelona)

The teenage sensation took the world by storm last season. He was dubbed the best player in the world by many despite his young age, as the winger was just unplayable at times. He will be donning the iconic number 10 jersey this season, and huge expectations will be on his shoulders. He has already registered six goals and eight assists in the 2025-26 season so far.

Antonio Sivera (Alavés)

The Spaniard has been one of the top performers for Alavés this season. The 29-year-old goalkeeper has already kept two clean sheets this season. Considering the attacking threat of Barcelona, he needs to deliver a very strong performance. Alavés have an underwhelming defensive record, and the club will look at their goalkeeper to rescue them against the Blaugrana.
