Barcelona v Real Betis

ITV4, 8pm Sunday

Lionel Messi's return should invigorate champions Barcelona as they host Real Betis after a shocking defeat at Athletic Bilbao first time out.

The Catalans return to Camp Nou looking to avoid a repeat of last year's shock 4-3 reverse in the same fixture. Both sides have bolstered their attack with the signings of Antoine Griezmann and Nabil Fekir respectively and goals should be the order of the day.

Recommendation
Over 3.5 goals
1pt 11-10 Betfair

Key stat
Eight of the last 11 La Liga meetings between the sides have featured over 3.5 goals.
