Barcelona looks to extend its lead atop La Liga when it visits the Estadio Benito Villamarín to play Real Betis.
After just one domestic victory in November that saw the Blaugrana lead shrink, Barcelona returned to winning ways with a convincing 5–1 victory midweek against Mallorca. Real Madrid's loss vs. Athletic Bilbao now have Hansi Flick's men four points clear in first place as we approach the midway point of the season.
