Really not a fan of these late night games. Feels like we have too many of them. Although it's a midweek game so guess the only timeslots that works is 7pm or 9pm.

Will be a difficult match.

As long as we score one goal, we are guaranteed to win this match as we can no longer concede a goal.

that's the spirit.

I hope Own Goal is gonna get back in form for this difficult match now that Dembele is injured.

Even without Dembele Barca have a far better squad and one with hundreds of millions compared to theirs.

Bit more difficult now but should not be fearing Betis and need to get team organised in way to minimise how much Dembele is missed.

Wouldn't surprise me if we drew this one.

with Lewy back maybe we can arrange some decent attack true center FW and not just bang it all on the wings.

Fight hard for the 3 points and put Madrid far in the rear mirror.

Time for Raphinha to show us what we paid 60m for.

He has to be given a decent chance to show that as well.

If he is wide and isolated then teams just double up and he is stuck a lot of time unless comes up with some world class pass.

He cant go on outside and teams know it.

Barca dont have an attacking RB to make the runs he needs but maybe ask Kounde to it more than feels natural to him. Keep Kounde higher up park and then Raphinha central a bit more.

If do that they are lighter defensively and probably need both Pedri and FDJ in narrower and closer to Busi to help cover the full backs.

This is assuming Gavi at LW/LM and that four mids play.
