Camp Nou the key

Sergi Nogueras


The league title will be decided over the last three matches of the season and while all the main candidates will play two of those matches at home, Barça’s record this season in the Camp Nou has been nearly perfect.


Barça will have the home advantage in two of their three remaining games; exactly the same as their main rivals. If Barça maintain their excellent home record, everything is in their favour to be in the title race to the last gasp.

Second highest percentage

qm3d5074.jpgBarça have won 43 of the 51 points at stake in the Camp Nou, an average of 84.31%. Valencia match those figures exactly while the only team in Europe that have done better are Sevilla, with 86.27% of the points in their Sánchez Pizjuán stadium. In contrast, Real Madrid have only managed to pick up 66.66% of the points in the Santiago Bernabéu.

Comparison with Europe

Barça’s figures are even more impressive if we compare them with some of the other big clubs in the major European leagues. Manchester United have taken 82.15% of the points at Old Trafford, Inter 83.33% at the San Siro, Olympique Marseille 80.39% at the Velodrome and Schalke 04 80.39% at the Veltins-Arena.

Camp Nou and Stamford Bridge

Best goal difference

Barça also have the best goal difference (+28) on their own ground and, together with Sevilla, have the highest total of goals scored (38). Finally, Barça share the record for the fewest number of goals conceded (10) with Valencia and Getafe.
