Barcelona made it two wins in two games under new manager Xavi Hernandez after going four games without a win in La Liga. Following a 1-0 win over Catalan rivals Espanyol last week, the Blaugrana trounced Villarreal 3-1 on Saturday.

Next Saturday, Xavi will welcome Manuel Pellegrini's side at Camp Nou in what will be a critical match as the squad aims to continue climbing the table.

And, in the weeks running up to the match, Barcelona has received a significant boost. This is due to the fact that Real Betis will be without one of their key players for the trip to Camp Nou. According to Albert Roge of SPORT, Real Betis will be without crucial player Nabil Fekir for the game against Barcelona due to a suspension.

Manuel Pellegrini's setup is incomplete without the 28-year-old, who has been a constant presence in the squad. He has only missed two games in all competitions this season, scoring three goals and adding four assists in 18 appearances.
