LaLiga confirmed the dates and times for the third matchday of the 25/26 season. FC Barcelona will visit Rayo Vallecano in their third consecutive match away from home, due to the works at the Spotify Camp Nou

LaLiga EA Sports has announced the schedules for matchday 3 of the 2025/26 tournament, which will be played between Friday, August 29 and Sunday, August 31. A matchday in which FC Barcelona will have to face a visit to the Estadio de Vallecas to face Rayo Vallecano.

Hansi Flick's team, after facing their visits to RCD Mallorca (MD1) and Levante (MD2), will cross forces against the team of Iñigo Pérez, a team that in the 2024/25 season they beat twice: 1-2 in Vallecas, coincidentally on matchday three of the tournament — with goals from Pedri González and Dani Olmo — and 1-0 in Montjuïc, with a goal from Robert Lewandowski, on matchday 24.
