Official: Barcelona starting lineup against Real Betis

Barcelona will hope to get back to winning ways when they take on Real Betis at the Camp Nou tonight. They are currently winless in four of their five games in all competitions, and desperately need a confidence boost to wrap up the league season.

Xavi has opted for the strongest possible starting lineup for the game, with Andreas Christensen back in the mix as one of the centre-backs.

He is joined by Ronald Araujo in that role, while Jules Kounde plays as the right-back. Alejandro Balde rounds off the back four on the left.

Marc-Andre ter Stegen starts in goal, hoping to earn his 24th clean sheet of the season.

The midfield features Sergio Busquets in defensive midfield after the Spaniard was suspended for the Rayo Vallecano game.

Frenkie de Jong and Pedri start together again in their preferred central midfield roles.

Raphinha gets the nod on the right wing over Ousmane Dembele, who has returned from injury.

Robert Lewandowski will be gunning to go as the centre-forward after Karim Benzema’s hattrick today, while Gavi returns to the left wing.
