Barcelona sits at the top of the La Liga standings with 66 points and will be eager to extend their lead with another home victory. Hansi Flick’s side is in red-hot form, winning nine consecutive league matches, including a dominant 41 victory over Girona last weekend.
Barça has been exceptional at home, winning 16 of their last 21 matches at Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys. With Robert Lewandowski leading the attack, the Catalans will aim to maintain their momentum.
However, they will be without Marc Casado, Dani Olmo, Andreas Christensen, and Marc Bernal due to injuries.
Betting on Real Betis
- 1XBet Spread: +1.5
- 1XBet Moneyline: 7.95
- 1XBet Over/Under: Under 3.5
Real Betis is in fifth place with 47 points and has been impressive recently, winning four straight matches across all competitions, including a Seville derby victory over Sevilla.
Manuel Pellegrini’s men have also won five of their last six away games, making them a tough opponent for Barcelona. However, their historical record against Barça is poor, losing 83% of their last six La Liga meetings.
To make matters worse, key midfielder Isco is suspended, which could weaken Betis’ attacking play.
MatchPlug Prediction for Barcelona vs Real Betis
Both teams are in great form, but Barcelona’s dominant home record and superior head-to-head history make them favorites.
Real Betis is strong on the road, but the absence of Isco and their struggles at this venue could prove costly.
Final Prediction: Barcelona to win.
