This weekend will kick off the 2022-23 LaLiga Santander season, a league that is undoubtedly one of the most popular in the world for having two of the greatest teams in the history of this beautiful sport, Real Madrid and FC Barcelona.
The main attraction of the first day of LaLiga Santander is the renewal of FC Barcelona, after a season to forget when they saw their biggest rivals, Real Madrid, win the title of LaLiga and the UEFA Champions League.
That is why Joan Laporta and Xavi Hernandez intend to reverse this situation and win trophies again this season with the spectacular signings they made.
All eyes will be on the Camp Nou this Saturday, August 13, when FC Barcelona will host Rayo Vallecano, one of their tormentors last season, to witness the new face of the Culés.

Why Bet on FC Barcelona
The team that has moved best in the summer transfer market is FC Barcelona. With the incorporation of Robert Lewandowski, Jules Kounde, Andreas Christensen, Raphinha, and Kessié, the Blaugrana team has a new face this season to fight for all the trophies they dispute.
In the preseason they have shown it, they have managed to crush each of the rivals they have faced, proving that FC Barcelona is back.
Their last game played was a 6-0 victory against Pumas in the Joan Gamper trophy.
Why Bet on Rayo Vallecano
On the other hand, Rayo Vallecano comes to this first matchday with the illusion of repeating the feat achieved last season, where they managed to beat FC Barcelona in the two matches they played, with a score of 1-0 both games. To do so, the Madrid team will try to stop the stars that Barça now has in all lines.
Rayo Vallecano comes from a very good preseason where they did not lose any of the matches they played, so, they come with the spirit and confidence sky-high.
Final Betting Analysis: FC Barcelona vs. Rayo Vallecano
We recall that the last time Barça played the Joan Gamper against a Mexican team was in 2014, against León, who they also defeated 6-0, and that year FC Barcelona won all the trophies they played for.
At MyBookie.ag we can see that there is a Moneyline that strongly favors FC Barcelona at -526, while Rayo Vallecano at +1200.
Despite the recent history between these two teams, in which Rayo Vallecano outperforms FC Barcelona, this year the Culés have a completely renewed team full of spectacular players.
That is why for this match our winning chip is for FC Barcelona, and we predict a score of 3-1.
Look for a straight win on the Moneyline FC Barcelona. If you put $100 on FC Barcelona at -526, you’ll be looking at a $19.01 win with a total payout of $119.01.
