After their 11-game La Liga winning run was snapped by Deportivo Aláves, Barcelona are aiming to complete a perfect season on home soil when Real Betis come to town on Sunday evening.
Hansi Flick’s side were confirmed as back-to-back Spanish champions in the faces of Clásico rivals Real Madrid last weekend, as stunning goals from Marcus Rashford and Ferran Torres inspired a comfortable 2–0 win.
However, their dreams of claiming a 100-point haul were dashed midweek in Aláves, with Flick rotating heavily in the aftermath of Sunday’s title celebrations.
Their upcoming opponents, who were beaten 5–3 in a thriller back in December, enter the contest in a similarly jubilant mood, having secured their spot in next season‘s Champions League. Led by Premier League-winning manager Manuel Pellegrini, Betis have continued on their upward trajectory after reaching last season’s Conference League final.
Sunday’s visitors confirmed their spot in Europe’s premier club competition for the first time since 2005–06 by beating Elche 2–1 midweek.
