Barcelona Predicted Lineup vs. Real Betis: La Liga | OneFootball

Barcelona host Real Betis at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys looking to extend their lead atop La Liga.

The Catalans have won nine La Liga games in a row and command the title race with a three-point lead over Real Madrid. However, this won't be an easy game for the Catalans as Betis are the second most in form team in Spain, having won six straight in La Liga, including a victory over Los Blancos.

The two teams tied 2–2 in the reverse fixture. Now, Barcelona will hope to protect their home advantage to continue their title charge.

Hansi Flick will be without Dani Olmo who'll be sidelined until late April, making one of Fermín López or Gavi prime candidates to start. With the crucial first leg of the Champions League semifinals vs. Borussia Dortmund looming, Flick might decide to alter some of his lineup, but don't expect many rotations given how tight the La Liga title race is.
