Robert Lewandowski and Ferran Torres put Hansi Flick&#8217;s team ahead on a couple of occasions, but goals from Lo Celso and Diao rescued a draw for the locals at the Benito Villamar\u00edn. <strong>In January, they faced each other again, in the round of 16 of the Copa del Rey<\/strong>, but in Montju\u00efc. There, Bar\u00e7a asserted their superiority with <strong>a &#8216;manita&#8217; (5-1)<\/strong>. Gavi, Kound\u00e9, Raphinha, Ferran, and Lamine Yamal scored in the Blaugrana celebration, while Vitor Roque scored for the Andalusians.<\/p>  <p>Now without &#8216;Tigrinho&#8217; in their squad, but with the also Brazilian Antony, the Betis team returns to Barcelona looking to surprise against a team that in 2025 has been, by far, the best in the world. <strong>The Catalans have 18 victories and 3 draws in 21 appearances<\/strong>, with nine consecutive wins in La Liga and a spot secured for the Copa del Rey final. Additionally, they are alive in the Champions League, where they will face Borussia Dortmund in the quarter-finals.<\/p>  <h2>Bar\u00e7a arrives in top form against a dangerous rival<\/h2>  <p>In that sense, the Blaugrana arrive at the final stretch of the season in their best moment, although aware of the danger that Betis represents. For now, <strong>Manuel Pellegrini&#8217;s team is sixth with 47 points<\/strong>, but tied with Villarreal (5th) and only 6 points behind Athletic Club, who is in fourth place. With Atl\u00e9tico Madrid (3rd) practically out of the &#8216;race&#8217; for the title (they are 9 points behind after the draw against Espanyol), Real Madrid is shaping up as the main contender for Bar\u00e7a in the final stretch of the season.<\/p>  <p>Hansi Flick&#8217;s team, however, has shown no signs of weakness this 2025. After the draw against Getafe (1-1) on matchday 20, the Catalans have nine consecutive victories. <strong>Valencia, Alav\u00e9s, Sevilla, Rayo, Las Palmas, Real Sociedad, Atl\u00e9tico de Madrid, Osasuna, and Girona<\/strong> have failed in their attempts to stop an undefeated team in all competitions since December 21.<\/p>  <p>Thus, with 27 points left to play for, Barcelona presents itself not only as <a data-external=\"0\" data-intl-links-en=\"https:\/\/www.fcbarcelonanoticias.com\/en\/football\/barcelona-and-three-other-european-giants-dream-of-treble-in-2024-25_311942_102.html\" data-intl-links-es=\"https:\/\/www.fcbarcelonanoticias.com\/futbol\/barcelona-otros-tres-grandes-europa-suenan-con-triplete-2024-25_311942_102.html\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fcbarcelonanoticias.com\/en\/football\/barcelona-and-three-other-european-giants-dream-of-treble-in-2024-25_311942_102.html\" rel=\"follow\" target=\"_self\" title=\"Bar\u00e7a and three other European giants dream of the treble in 2024-25\">the main candidate to win LaLiga, but also for the treble<\/a>. The squad maintains high hopes, but with their feet firmly on the ground to face each match with the seriousness needed to achieve results. Whether with thrashings or tight victories, the Catalans have learned to manage results without sacrificing the quality of their football or renouncing the style that has yielded such good results throughout the season.<\/p>  <p>On the other hand, like Bar\u00e7a, Betis also has a European competition match this week. <strong>The Andalusians will host Jagiellonia Bia\u0142ystok from Poland<\/strong> next Thursday in the quarter-finals of the Conference League. A day earlier, Flick&#8217;s team will do the same in Montju\u00efc against Dortmund.

The other option would be to bet on Eric Garc\u00eda, but the Catalan is aiming for the midfield, accompanying Pedri.<\/p>  <p><strong>Without Marc Casad\u00f3 and with Frenkie de Jong somewhat battered after the Copa semi-final return<\/strong>, the &#8217;24&#8217; must lend a hand as a pivot, a role he performed well last Sunday against his former team, Girona. Jules Kound\u00e9 would remain on the right side, with Gerard Mart\u00edn returning to the XI in place of Alejandro Balde. Another player hoping to return to the starting lineup on Saturday is Gavi, who was preserved for precaution on Wednesday in the Metropolitano.<\/p>  <p>In attack, there should be no changes with the offensive trio, although <strong>Raphinha showed against Atl\u00e9tico that, after the FIFA date, he is still not at 100%<\/strong>. If the Brazilian stays on the bench, Ferm\u00edn L\u00f3pez would again be the chosen one to occupy the left side of the Catalan attack, alongside Lamine Yamal and Robert Lewandowski. Ferran Torres, the hero of the victory in the &#8216;colchonero&#8217; stronghold, will again wait for his opportunity on the bench.<\/p>  <h2>&nbsp;<\/h2>  <ul> <li>\u2139\ufe0f&nbsp;<strong>Lineups:<\/strong>&nbsp;the possible starting XI of FC Barcelona and Atl\u00e9tico:&nbsp;<strong><a data-external=\"0\" data-intl-links-en=\"https:\/\/www.fcbarcelonanoticias.com\/en\/laliga\/fc-barcelona-vs-real-betis-probable-lineups-for-match-laliga-2024-25_311958_102.html\" data-intl-links-es=\"https:\/\/www.fcbarcelonanoticias.com\/laliga\/fc-barcelona-vs-real-betis-alineaciones-probables-partido-laliga-2024-25_311958_102.html\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fcbarcelonanoticias.com\/en\/laliga\/fc-barcelona-vs-real-betis-probable-lineups-for-match-laliga-2024-25_311958_102.html\" rel=\"follow\" target=\"_self\" title=\"FC Barcelona vs Real Betis: Probable lineups for the match - LaLiga 2024-25\">WATCH<\/a><\/strong> <\/li> <\/ul> <h2>Betis will also arrive at Montju\u00efc on a streak<\/h2>  <p>Beyond the absence of Isco Alarc\u00f3n, due to suspension, Betis arrives with renewed confidence at Montju\u00efc.&nbsp;<a data-external=\"0\" data-intl-links-en=\"https:\/\/www.fcbarcelonanoticias.com\/en\/fc-barcelona\/the-great-streak-of-real-betis-in-laliga-that-barcelona-will-try-to-break_311957_102.html\" data-intl-links-es=\"https:\/\/www.fcbarcelonanoticias.com\/fc-barcelona\/gran-racha-real-betis-en-laliga-buscara-romper-barcelona_311957_102.html\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fcbarcelonanoticias.com\/en\/fc-barcelona\/the-great-streak-of-real-betis-in-laliga-that-barcelona-will-try-to-break_311957_102.html\" rel=\"follow\" target=\"_self\" title=\"The great streak of Real Betis in LaLiga that Barcelona will try to break\">The &#8216;verdiblancos&#8217; have also accumulated their last 18 points at stake<\/a>, with victories against Real Sociedad (3-2), Getafe (1-2), Real Madrid (2-1), Las Palmas (1-0), Legan\u00e9s (2-3), and Sevilla (2-1).
