A few days ago, Real Betis advanced to the Round of 16 of the Copa del Rey by defeating Sant Andreu (3-1). This victory ended Betis’ winless streak, which had stretched to four matches. In the previous La Liga round, the Heliopolitanos failed to capitalize on their territorial dominance. Despite outperforming Real Sociedad in many statistical aspects, Manuel Pellegrini’s side ultimately lost (0-2). Currently, the Seville-based club sits in 10th place in the La Liga standings. A significant obstacle to achieving consistent performances is their overcrowded injury list. The coaching staff cannot rely on the following players: Héctor Bellerín, William Carvalho, Pablo Fornals, Isco, Marc Roca, and Johnny Cardoso.
The Catalan club managed to bounce back from a surprising defeat to Las Palmas (1-2). In a rescheduled Matchday 19 fixture, Barcelona convincingly defeated Mallorca (5-1) at the Iberostar Stadium. In that match, Hansi Flick demonstrated his communication and tactical adaptability, completely transforming his team’s play after halftime. Currently, the Blaugrana lead the La Liga standings with 37 points. Their attacking output has been remarkable, averaging exactly three goals per match. The team’s top scorers include Robert Lewandowski (15 goals, 2 assists), Raphinha (11 goals, 6 assists), and Lamine Yamal (5 goals, 8 assists). However, Flick and his staff continue to deal with several absences, as Ronald Araújo, Marc Bernal, Andreas Christensen, Ansu Fati, and Marc-André ter Stegen remain unavailable.
