As you know, Barcelona is in big financial trouble. They have also lost their biggest star, Messi. But he was not the only significant loss for Barcelona. I dare say that this is the weakest Barcelona has been in a decade. Compared to previous years, their performance is horrible. It was no surprise to me when Barcelona lost 0:2 to Atletico Madrid in the last league round. Their previous match in the Champions League group stage at Benfica, where the Catalan club were beaten 0:3, was not much better. Barcelona failed to send a single shot on the opponent's goal in the whole match!
On the other hand, Valencia, after a miserable season, has been playing very well this year. Despite losing points for unnecessary draws in the last few league rounds, they dominated on the pitch. Cadiz, who drew 0-0 with Valencia in the last league round, can be happy for a point because they were under enormous pressure the whole game.
It is also a derby. This is always a very prestigious match for Valencia. The motivation will be huge and considering the state of Barcelona at the moment, I believe Valencia will not lose this game.
H2H:
Valencia 2:3 Barcelona (2021)
Barcelona 2:2 Valencia (2020)
Valencia 2:0 Barcelona (2020)
My bet:
Double Chance: Draw or Valencia @ 2.62 (bet365)
