Barcelona-Betis is a match of the thirty-second day of La Liga and is played on Saturday at 9 pm: likely formations, predictions, TV and streaming.
It really seems that Barcelona does not want to give the final blow, the one of grace, to this La Liga. Yes, okay, it’s only a matter of time since the points lead over Real Madrid is still eleven, but the Catalans, keeping the pace they’ve shown during the season, could have been on vacation by now.
Instead, Xavi’s ranks in their last five outings have won only once and are stretching out the broth. And, during the midweek round it also lost on the field of Vallecano. In short, the head is already in the party, it is clear that as said it is not really in question at all. Only a matter of time, although even the fans are starting to get impatient.
Of course now there is that at the Camp Nou comes Betis, which is in the middle of the race for a European spot. And the match will therefore also be watched with a lot of interest by those teams that are playing for a cup access together with Pellegrini’s team. The guests are not doing so well either: four points won in the last five games and the feeling that something is jammed. A decisive turnaround would be needed to spark the final comeback, the one that could lead to a – very difficult – qualification to the next Champions League. In any case, the guests need points, certainly more than the Catalans at the moment, who, however, have no intention of spending another evening thinking about what could have been and what wasn’t.

The prediction
Fight by at least three goals overall and second consecutive home win – after the one against Atletico Madrid – for Xavi’s Barcelona. Three points that would start the countdown.
