📊 Match Insights
Barcelona will look to maintain their impressive start to the season as they host Racing de Santander at Camp Nou on Wednesday night.
Currently, the Catalan club sits at the top of the La Liga standings with 15 points, while Racing has made a solid start as well, positioned 10th with seven points.
Barcelona has been in exceptional form, securing five consecutive league victories and netting 21 goals in those matches.
Hansi Flick's squad comes into this game following a 4-2 triumph over Levante and a dominant 5-1 victory against Feyenoord in their Champions League opener last week.
Sitting three points clear of second-placed Real Madrid, Barcelona is poised for what could be an exciting title race this season.
Both Raphinha and Lamine Yamal have contributed six goals each in La Liga so far, with Raphinha particularly shining in a central role. Given their remarkable attacking prowess, it's hard to bet against Barcelona in any matchup right now.
Historically, Barcelona and Racing have faced each other 101 times across all competitions, with Barcelona leading the head-to-head record with 63 wins compared to Racing's 17.
Racing has not managed to defeat Barcelona since January 2004, and they have lost their last eight encounters in all competitions against them.
While the visitors recognize the challenge ahead on Wednesday, they have had a promising start to the season after winning last year's Segunda Division, which earned them promotion back to this level.
