Slavia Prague vs. Barcelona prediction, pick for Wednesday 1/21/26

The league phase of the Champions League continues on Wednesday as Slavia Prague hosts Barcelona.

Barca are -330 favorites to win, while a draw is available at +550. Fancy a Slavia Prague win? They are +700 on the moneyline on DraftKings Sportsbook.

Slavia Prague vs. Barcelona prediction, pick

This bet can be found under the “Match Parlays” tab. Barcelona currently sit in 15th place in the Champions League standings, but a win on Wednesday would see them climb at least two places. It could be more, depending on results from other games. With only two matches left in the league phase, every result is critical to get into the top eight and secure a spot in the Round of 16.

On the flip side, Slavia Prague sit in 34th place with only three points. They need a miracle to qualify for the top 24 places, as they are five points behind a playoff spot with two games to go. They need to win each of their last two games and get help in order to avoid elimination.

Barca are huge favorites in this one for a reason, and they are facing off against the worst offensive team in the competition. Slavia Prague have only managed to score twice in their first six games, the lowest mark of any team. They have failed to score in a whopping five of their six games. I would be shocked if they found the net on Wednesday.

Barca likely needs two wins from their last two games to secure a top-eight position and book a spot in the Round of 16. That starts on Wednesday, and it should be an easy day at the office for the Spanish league leaders.

Best Bet: Barcelona Win to Zero (+135)
