Latest Barcelona vs Real Betis team information
Barcelona will still be without Dani Olmo, Marc Casado, Andreas Christensen, Marc Bernal and Marc-André ter Stegen due to injury. In addition, Lamine Yamal needs to be checked after a foot injury suffered in the semi-final against Atletico. However, the possibility of the 17-year-old playing is quite high.
Coach Hansi Flick could make two changes to the line-up, with Robert Lewandowski and Gavi likely to start in place of Ferran Torres and Fermin Lopez.
Ronald Araujo is also a worthy option in central defence, but the pair of Pau Cubarsi and Inigo Martinez are in excellent form and could continue to be relied upon.
As for Real Betis, Antony – the winger on loan from Manchester United – will continue to start on the right flank after a string of brilliant performances since arriving in Seville at the end of the January transfer window.
Marc Roca remains a doubt with a foot injury, while star attacker Isco will miss out through suspension after picking up a yellow card in the derby against Sevilla.
Giovani Lo Celso is likely to replace Isco in attack, with Pablo Fornals continuing in deep midfield. This could be the only change to Betis' starting line-up from the last match.

Latest football commentary Barcelona vs Real Betis
Barcelona are becoming a real winning machine, having won all seven of their last matches in all competitions and taken all nine points in a row in La Liga. This achievement has helped them take the lead in the championship race.
Last weekend, Hansi Flick's team won 4-1 against Girona, raising their total points to 66 after 29 rounds, temporarily three points ahead of Real Madrid - the second-placed team.
Barcelona are currently fighting on three fronts as the season enters its crucial phase. They have just booked their place in the Copa del Rey final after beating Atletico Madrid 1-0 in the second leg of their semi-final. The final against Real Madrid will take place at the end of April.
They will also host Borussia Dortmund in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final next week. With their current form and attacking strength, the dream of a treble is not impossible for the Catalans – they have scored 82 goals in 29 La Liga games, 20 more than champions Real Madrid.
However, the challenge ahead is Real Betis – a team in brilliant form with six consecutive wins in La Liga, including a 2-1 victory in the Seville derby against Sevilla in the most recent round.
Manuel Pellegrini's side are currently sixth in the table, seven points ahead of seventh-placed Rayo Vallecano, level on points with Villarreal in fifth and just six points behind Athletic Bilbao in the race for the top four.
Betis have won three of their last four away games in La Liga, scoring five goals in their last two. This impressive run of form also includes a home win over Real Madrid.
They previously held Barcelona to a 2-2 draw in the first leg in Seville, although they were then beaten 5-1 by the same opponents in the Copa del Rey round of 16 in January. However, Betis still have reason to be optimistic, having beaten Barca 1-0 at Camp Nou in December 2021.
