Barcelona head to Real Betis on December 7 as they aim to boost their challenge for the La Liga's title.

After a poor run of November form, Hansi Flick's team returned to winning ways in midweek as they stormed to a 5-1 victory away at Mallorca.

That has eased the pressure slightly on the Catalan giants as Real Madrid continue to apply pressure on their Clasico rivals in the final weeks of 2024.

Hosts Real Betis have been struggling across all competitions of late, with three successive losses in domestic and European action prior to Wednesday's 3-1 Copa del Rey win at Sant Andreu. They are also without a win in their past four league outings.

Real Betis predicted lineup (4-2-3-1, right to left): Silva (GK) -- Sabaly, Barta, Llorente, Perraud -- Juanmi, Losada -- Rodriguez, Lo Celso, Ezzalzouli -- Vitor Roque

Lamine Yamal and Dani Olmo both returned to the starting lineup in the win in Palma and should keep their spots.

The big call is expected to be made in attack, as Robert Lewandowski was left on the bench in Mallorca, with Ferran Torres starting. Despite Torres scoring early on, Lewandowski's spot on the bench was to preserve him for this game, and he should start on the back of already scoring 15 league goals this season.

Barcelona predicted lineup (4-3-3, right to left): Pena (GK) -- Kounde, Cubarsi, Martinez, Balde -- Olmo, Casado, Pedri -- Lamine Yamal, Lewandowski, Raphinha

Injured: Bernal, Christensen, Ter Stegen, Fati (doubtful)

Suspended: None
