BAR vs JUV Dream11 prediction

Barcelona’s form in the ongoing friendlies has been good. They have won two of their three matches so far and are averaging almost three goals per match, having scored 8 goals in total. Juventus, on the other hand, have played only one friendly, against Guadalajara, and managed to come out victorious 2-0.

Judging by the look of things, Barcelona’s preparation has been on track, which is likely to put them in the driving seat on Wednesday. They are also ahead of Juve in terms of the current fitness within the squad.

BAR vs JUV Dream11 team tips for pre-season 2022-23 football friendly

Top tip: Best forward

Barcelona forward Robert Lewandowski is an ideal pick for this position. The Poland international got into the thick of things against Real Madrid and will want to open his Barcelona goal account against Juventus. At 10.0 credits, he sure remains an expensive investment but looking at Barcelona’s dynamic attack, it’s only a matter of time before he gets on the scoresheet.

Top tip: Best midfielder

Barcelona’s new signing, Raphinha, made a dream start at his new club, scoring two goals in each of his last two games for the team. As a result, he has tallied 209 fantasy points, forcing 71.67 per cent of fantasy users to pick him in their team. He remains a strong recommendation for this contest.

Top tip: Best defender and goalkeeper

Barcelona defender Ronald Araujo could be a smart pick for Wednesday’s game. The 23-year-old Uruguayan has been key to his team’s success in defence so far, tallying 40 points alone during Barca’s win over Real Madrid. At just 8.5 credits, he could prove to be an absolute steal.

For a goalkeeper, Barcelona’s Marc-Andre ter Stegen remains an outright pick. The German stopper has accrued 38 fantasy points so far and his selection comes on the back of his team’s brilliant defensive record in club friendlies. A great shot stopper, the German keeper will be confident about not conceding like in the last two friendlies.

BAR vs JUV probable playing XI

BAR playing XI (probable): Marc-André ter Stegen (goalkeeper); Sergino Dest, Ronald Araujo, Andreas Christensen, Jordi Alba; Gavi, Sergio Busquets (captain), Pedri; Raphinha, Robert Lewandowski, Ansu Fati

JUV playing XI (probable): Wojciech Szczesny (goalkeeper); Juan Cuadrado, Federico Gatti, Leonardo Bonucci (captain), Alex Sandro; Nicolo Fagioli, Manuel Locatelli, Paul Pogba; Angel di Maria; Dusan Vlahovic, Moise Kean
