**Betis Faces Steep Climb Against Dominant Barcelona**
Real Betis simply cannot afford another slip-up at home. They've drawn their last three matches at the Benito Villamarín, including a 2-2 stalemate against a struggling Valencia side on April 20th. Barcelona, on the other hand, has been on cruise control, securing a commanding 3-0 victory over Mallorca just last weekend thanks to a brace from Lamine Yamal. The key matchup will be Raphinha against Betis's often exposed right flank.
Thing is, Betis's defense has looked shaky, conceding in each of their last five league games. Barcelona's attack, even without Lewandowski sometimes, has been too potent to contain consistently. Expect the Blaugrana to continue their impressive run.
Barcelona wins 2-1.
