Where to Watch Barcelona vs. Villarreal: Live Stream, TV Channel, and Kick-Off Info for Crucial La Liga Showdown

Barcelona return to the newly renovated Camp Nou on Saturday hoping to extend their slender lead at the top of the La Liga table when they welcome Villarreal for a 4:15 p.m. local kick-off.

The Blaugrana reclaimed first place last weekend after a comprehensive 3-0 victory over Levante, capitalizing on Real Madrid’s recent stumble. That result offset the damage done by Barça’s earlier defeat to Girona and sets the stage for another high-stakes encounter in the 2025/26 title race.

Injury concerns have clouded the build-up, however, with midfielder Frenkie de Jong ruled out for the next month after sustaining a hamstring problem.

United States viewers can catch the match live on ESPN Deportes (Spanish-language telecast) or stream it through the ESPN app and Fubo. English-language coverage is available exclusively via the ESPN Select app, which carries every La Liga fixture this season.

Kick-off times across U.S. time zones: - Eastern: 10:15 a.m. - Central: 9:15 a.m. - Mountain: 8:15 a.m. - Pacific: 7:15 a.m.

Saturday’s clash represents more than three points for Barcelona, who know any slip could reopen the door for Madrid with the season entering its decisive stretch.
