Barcelona vs. Slavia Prague: UCL Odds, Live Stream, TV Schedule

Barcelona can all but end Slavia Prague's hopes of advancing to the UEFA Champions League knockout stages if they defeat their Group F foes at the Camp Nou on Tuesday.

The Blaugrana held on to beat Slavia 2-1 when these teams met in the Czech Republic on Matchday 3, but the stakes are higher entering the second half of the group stage.

Defeat would leave Jindrich Trpisovsky's side six points outside the top two in Group F provided one of Borussia Dortmund or Inter Milan emerge as victors in their clash at the Westfalenstadion in Germany.

Barca hold a three-point lead at the summit and will hope to maintain (or possibly) extend that cushion on Matchday 4, while Slavia's fleeting hopes of a round-of-16 spot face a critical juncture.

Ernesto Valverde's men suffered a 3-1 embarrassment at Levante on Saturday when their seven-match win streak came to an end.

Preview

The pressure on Valverde will have intensified following Saturday's disappointment away to Levante, but thankfully for Barcelona their home form has been considerably more reliable this season.

Real Madrid's 0-0 draw at home to Real Betis means the Catalans remain top of La Liga, and a perfect record after six home games suggests normal service should resume at the Camp Nou.

Lionel Messi scored just three minutes into the first meeting between Barcelona and Slavia, but the Czechs ran their illustrious opponents close in the 2-1 home loss:

Slavia have since won two league games in a row, beating title rivals Viktoria Plzen 1-0 away from home before they thrashed Banik Ostrava 4-0 on Saturday.

Barcelona will be wary despite the apparent gulf between their side and Group F's bottom team, who could completely turn their Champions League campaign around with a surprise win in Catalonia.

What's more, Valverde may be without striker Luis Suarez, who came off in the first half of Saturday's loss, per AFP's Tom Allnutt:

Ansu Fati started against Dortmund earlier in the European campaign and was an unused substitute in the visit to Slavia in October. The 17-year-old could be an option to come into the lineup should Valverde look to rest certain regulars, though the desire to not risk a result may mean he sticks with a more senior side.

La Liga sportswriter Euan McTear joked Barcelona will turn their form around despite the recent pressure on Valverde:

Anything but a win against Slavia would cast further doubt over the manager's future in Catalonia, with Barcelona hoping the Champions League will provide their springboard to success.
