Barcelona can lay claim to being the best team in Europe right now and it’s a surprise that they’re available at such as big price to beat Sociedad this weekend. OK, they might be odds-on although it’s not that skinny a price when you consider that they have been a winning machine who are averaging three goals per away game.

Hansi Flick’s side will concede the odd goal on the road, although it doesn’t matter when you boast a string of dangerous attacking players. Dani Olmo bagged a brace against Espanyol last weekend, with nine shots on target in that game and there’s been everything to like about the strike rate of Robert Lewandowski.

Barcelona’s last two away games in La Liga have seen them earn a 3-0 victory at Alaves before a devastating 4-0 triumph at Santiago Bernabeu in El Clasico. Therefore, a win to nil for the Catalan side could be worth considering and there’s also the option to back them to lead at half-time and full-time.

As for Sociedad, they have been struggling at home this term to the extent that they have lost four of their six clashes. They are only averaging one goal per home game and it’s hard to see how they’re going to shut out such dangerous opposition. Take Barcelona to enjoy a victory with something to spare and the Asian Handicap options could be interesting.
