The Camp Nou dresses up this Saturday, April 29, 2023, to host the duel, corresponding to matchday 32 of the League, between a FC Barcelona that seeks to take a new step towards the title and a Real Betis that hurries its options to be in the next edition of the Champions League.
With seven days to go before the 2022-2023 League ends, with 21 points at stake, Xavi Hernández's Barça continues to enjoy a considerable advantage (11 points) over its immediate rival, Real Madrid, but the truth is that The Catalans are having a hard time finishing off the job. On the last day, without going any further, the Catalans could not take advantage of the setback of Ancelotti's team, which was defeated 4-2 by Girona, and lost 2-1 at the home of Rayo Vallecano.
For this Saturday's match against Betis, Xavi can count on two players coming out of the infirmary: Dembélé and Christensen. The Frenchman has been training with the group for days and could have a few minutes, although the medical and technical staff do not want to risk a player with a long history of injuries. On his part, the Dane also seems to have recovered from the broken calf in his left leg that he suffered with his team on March 23. Although they have a medical discharge, it remains to be discovered if the culé coach has them.
For its part, Real Betis disembarks in Barcelona with the intention of giving a change of direction that will once again set the course for Europe straight. The Andalusians face matchday 32 from sixth place in the standings (in the Conference League zone), one point from the Europa League and six from the Champions League.
However, Pellegrini's team is not going through its best moment: in the last five games they have only won once (against Espanyol), they have drawn another (against Real Sociedad on the last day) and they have lost three games ( Athletic, Cádiz and Osasuna).
The Chilean coach could recover for the match against Barça Sabaly, who has been out for a month due to an ankle injury in a match with his team, and Juanmi, recovered from a feverish process for which he has been lost the last two commitments.
Referee Carlos del Cerro Grande, from the Madrid committee, will direct the Camp Nou match this Saturday.
The Barcelona - Betis match, corresponding to matchday 32 of the League, will be played at the Camp Nou this Saturday, April 29, starting at 9:00 p.m.
The match between Barça and Betis can be followed on television through the LaLiga channel on MovistarPlus. Likewise, the game can be followed live through EL MUNDO.
