The FC Barcelona is decided to not falling in the cheat of Benito Villamarín and to recover what before the defeat fit the Wednesday against the Espanyol. The aim: three points that serve to follow expanding the distances in League

Sometimes, it is necessary to receive a touch of attention to darse that it is not invincible. A small 'prick' that do you sangrar and see that you are human, and that the successes do not fall of the sky if the effort diminishes. This occurred him to the FC Barcelona the past Wednesday with the defeat suffered in quarter-finals of Glass of the King against the Espanyol (1-0), that shattered a series of 29 consecutive parties without losing and left clear to the ones of Ernesto Valverde that, if they want to conquer titles this season 2017-18, will not be able to go down the competitive rhythm.

It is thus that, this Sunday, the FC Barcelona wants to pay the dishes broken in Benito Villamarín against the Real Betis, a team that arrives in positive dynamics after the last victories harvested in LaLiga Santander 2017-18, especially the goleada to the Seville (3-5) in the 'derbi' of the Pizjuán, that allows them arrive to the meeting against the FC Barcelona between the ten first qualifiers of the domestic competition with 27 points. The Andalusians have changed the chip and cross a good moment, the best of the season, and do not want that the visit of the leader the enturbie.

Umtiti And Paulinho, the novelties

It fits to remember that the year happened the FC Barcelona so only could carry a tie (1-1) of Benito Villamarín, by fault of that goal ghost that the collegiate Hernández Hernández did not give like valid to the Barça although the ball had gone in half metre in the goal of Adán. The ones of Quique Setién have warned that they take the party bravely and expect to go back to arañar some point in own field against the Barça, but true is also that this Barcelona is not so irregular as it was it the one of Luis Enrique months backwards.

The management of Ernesto Valverde is hardly mejorable, and in spite of the drops with which travel the culés -Dembélé, Alcácer, Coutinho, Yerry Mina, Andrés Iniesta and Denis-, the fact to having recovered to Samuel Umtiti and also to Paulinho serves of extra inducement so that the Barça take the party with optimism, practising the game that has carried him up to now to lead LaLiga 2017-18 with a spotless solvency. The Real Betis chains three consecutive victories, but the Barça still has not lost any party in the championship suspender belt.

Three points to approach to the title

It expects therefore a duel of high voltage in Benito Villamarín, where the Betis will not be able to have Sanabria, Campbell and Barragán when causing drop, and with Mandi and Francis still without the certainty to be able to play. Jaime Latre will be the referee commissioned to give justice, and the aim is that it do not give any controversy like the one of the past year, that left in very bad place to LaLiga Spanish all over the world. Three points are at stake, and the FC Barcelona is had to take advantage of the rivals of his maxima perseguidores to follow approaching, step by step, to the trophy of champion.
