Barcelona will be out for revenge on Saturday when it hosts Rayo Vallecano in its opener of the 2022-23 La Liga season. Rayo Vallecano won both of last season’s meetings 1-0, but Barca went on to finish second in the La Liga table while Vallecano ended up 12th. Now, Barcelona has spent more money than any other team in the world during the transfer window – despite its dire financial prognosis – in an attempt to win a 27th league title. It has not won La Liga since 2018-19, but it brought in top players like striker Robert Lewandowski, winger Raphinha and center back Andreas Christensen to make a run this year. Rayo Vallecano went on a strong early run in its first season in the top division in three years, but a 13-game winless run put an end to any notion of true success in 2021-22.
Kickoff is set for 3 p.m. ET at Camp Nou in Barcelona.
