Head-to-head record

Previous meetings: 228
Valencia wins: 59
Draws: 57
Barcelona wins: 112

Barcelona have tackled Valencia on 228 occasions throughout their history, and the Catalan giants lead the head-to-head record, having won 112 times to Valencia's 59, while there have also been 57 draws between the two teams.

Valencia have not managed to beat Barcelona since January 2020, which was a 2-0 home success in La Liga; since then, the pair have met nine times in the league, and Barcelona have posted six wins, including a 4-2 success in their home fixture last term.

The points were shared in a 1-1 draw at Mestalla in the league last season, but Barcelona managed to triumph when the pair locked horns on the opening weekend of the 2024-25 La Liga campaign.

Valencia took the lead in the 44th minute of the contest through Hugo Duro, with the forward heading into the back of the net.

However, Robert Lewandowski levelled the scores before the half-time break, and the striker then netted his second of the match from the penalty spot early in the second period to secure the win for Hansi Flick's side.

The last non-La Liga game between the two sides took place in May 2019, with Valencia running out 2-1 winners in the Copa del Rey final.

However, Los Che have only beaten Barcelona on three occasions in all competitions since November 2014, while they have overcome the Catalan side just four times since March 2008, demonstrating Barcelona's dominance.

In La Liga, the two teams have locked horns on 179 occasions throughout history, with Barcelona winning 90 times, but Valencia have also posted 43 league victories, which is certainly a respectable number against this opposition.

Barcelona have won seven of the last eight league meetings between the two sides, while they have lost just once to Los Che in Spain's top flight since April 2016.

Lionel Messi is unsurprisingly the leading goalscorer in this particular fixture, finding the back of the net on 27 occasions against Valencia during his time at Barcelona.

Cesar Rodriguez is in second on 18, while Luis Suarez managed 12 goals against Valencia during his time with Barcelona.

Barcelona went on a five-game winning run against Valencia in La Liga between May 2021 and March 2023, and Los Che will be out for revenge when the two teams meet again in the league in the early stages of 2025.

The Catalan giants are expecting to be in a title race with reigning champions Real Madrid this season, while Valencia will be hoping to push towards the European spots, but they will need to show more consistency in the coming months.
