Match Details:
Teams: Real Betis vs Barcelona
Venue: King Fahd International Stadium, Al Riyad
Date: Friday 13th January, 2023
Time: 12:30 AM IST
Preview:
Real Betis come into this after a 2-1 away win over Rayo Vallecano in their previous La Liga clash on Sunday.
Balliu scored an own goal to send Betis 1-0 ahead before Camello equalized for Rayo. But Henrique’s first half effort proved enough as his goal made the difference to ensure another win. With that win, Betis remain in 4th place with 28 points from 16 matches.
On the other hand, Barcelona edged out Atletico Madrid with a narrow 1-0 win on Monday in the La Liga.
Dembele’s effort was enough to power the Blaugrana side as they remained top of the table with 41 points.
This is a crunch knockout clash in the Spanish Super Cup with the winner set to face Real Madrid in the final.
Could there be another El Clasico on the cards? Betis stand between the two Spanish teams to foil their plans.
Both teams last met in May in La Liga, where Barcelona won 2-1 away from home.

ter Stegan, Alba, Christensen, Araujo, Koundé, Pedri, Busquets, de Jong, Dembele, Lewandowski and Raphinha
Prediction: Real Betis 1-2 Barcelona
Barcelona’s attacking options are better for this contest. However, we expect another closely fought contest.
But Barcelona’s superior record should see them win this one and make it an El Clasico final.
Betis isn’t in the best of forms in recent times, but do have the capacity to trouble the visitors.
Players to watch out for: Rodri, Fekir, Lewandowski and de Jong.
