Reigning Spanish La Liga champions Barcelona, winners of 25 Spain top flight titles and seven of the last 10, as FB Reference records, face La Liga debutantes SD Huesca who have so far made good on their first-ever promotion to La Liga winning one and drawing one — but they have yet to face one of Spain’s giants, so the test against Barcelona in a match that will live stream from the Camp Nou could be an ordeal.
Barcelona’s manager, Ernesto Valverde, has also warned his side of the dangers inherent in facing a newly promoted team, according to Marca.com . Just last week, as the BBC reported, the champions were fortunate to come away with three points against another newly promoted side, Real Valladolid, when the upstarts lost out on an injury-time goal due to video review, allowing Las Blaugranas to escape with a 1-0 win.
“It is still too early to analyze the changes that have taken place, but Huesca play with the enthusiasm you get from a newly promoted team,” Valverde said.”They have shown they are capable of good results at difficult places, such as Ipurua or San Mames, and they won’t be afraid.”We know what these games are like because we have already had difficulties against newly promoted teams.”

“The game against Barcelona is a prize for us,” Lasaosa told the AP . “We already know Barcelona is expected to win. It may win 5-0. But let’s see. You still have to play the game.”
