Live on Skysports 4: Sat 20.00: Barcelona are 1/6 with Ladbrokes to beat Espanyol in La Liga and Lionel Messi can score again.
As the title race in Spain is over, Barcelona’s derby clash with Espanyol at the Camp Nou is something of a dead rubber but that doesn’t mean the hosts will take their foot off the gas, especially as it’s coach Pep Guardiola’s last home game in charge, and they’re just 1/6 with Ladbrokes to defeat their neighbours.
Following his midweek hat trick however, this game could be all about one Lionel Messi, who is still battling with Real Madrid’s Cristiano Ronaldo for the Golden Boot accolade.
The Argentine attacker has 46 league goals to his name and is 2/1 with William Hill to add to that by breaking the deadlock, bet365 make him evens to strike at least twice and another treble for the unstoppable front man is a 5/1 chance via Paddy Power.
Recommended Bets:
Lionel Messi to score first – 2/1 (William Hill)
