Prediction: 1-1
Barcelona
There will be fireworks when Real Betis and Barcelona lock horns at Estadio Benito Viallamarin in an eagerly-awaited Primera Division game. Los Beticos did well to beat Granada in the Andalusian derby at the weekend, but they face a tough challenge against Xavi’s troops. Former Newcastle United attacker Ayoze Perez limped off with injury in the last league match, with Assane Diao likely to step up. All Chadi Riad, Youssouf Sabaly, and Abde Ezzalzouli are on international duty, while Hector Bellerin remains in the recovery room.
The Catalans, on the other hand, suffered a massive 4-1 loss to Real Madrid in the Spanish Super Cup final, meaning that the lack of confidence could prove to be a big problem for them. As Betis are tough to beat at home, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. Both Raphinha and Gavi remain on the sidelines with injuries, while Joao Cancelo should recover in time to face los Beticos.
Highlighted Player (Robert Lewandowski):
After scoring 36 goals in 59 league games for Znicz Pruskow, Robert Lewandowski joined Lech Poznan in June, 2008. The 184-cm-tall attacker scored 18 goals in 28 appearances for the club in the 2009/2010 Ekstraklasa campaign and during the season he was on Borussia Dortmund’s radar.
The Polish forward signed a four-year deal with the Bundesliga side in June, 2010 and he quickly established himself as the team’s key attacker. Lewandowski was producing excellent performances with the Millionaires between 2010 and 2014 and it has to be noted that he won two Bundesliga trophies with the club (2010/2011, 2011/2012). He participated in the 2012/2013 Champions League final with Borussia Dortmund, but the Millionaires were beaten by fellow Bundesliga side Bayern Munich in the title game.
However, he betrayed Borussia Dortmund fans in 2014 as he signed a four-year deal with the Bundesliga giants. Lewandowski impressed in the 2016/2017 Bundesliga campaign as he scored 30 goals in 32 league games for Pep Guardiola’s troops.
