Hi community!
Flick introduces several rotations compared to the team that beat Real Madrid in the Super Cup final.
Hansi Flick has made several changes to the team that beat Real Madrid in the Spanish Super Cup final. The most notable change is the rest of Lewandowski, which will mean that Dani Olmo will be the false centre forward.
Iñaki Peña, who was left on the bench in Saudi Arabia after arriving late to the pre-semifinal training session against Athletic, is back in goal. It should be noted that Wojciech Szczesny, who was sent off in the Clásico, cannot be included in a squad that includes Astralaga and Kochen.
In defence, Araujo will form a pair with Cubarsí in the centre. After opting to stay at Barça, the Uruguayan will be a starter and will surely receive a resounding ovation from Montjuïc. On the wings, Kounde will remain and Gerard Martín will come in for a resting Balde.
The engine room will be made up of Gavi, Pedri and De Jong. The Dutchman will have a new opportunity to prove himself and start to show the level that is expected of him. Casadó, who gave a great performance against Real Madrid, will have a well-deserved rest.
Up front, the big surprise: Lewandowski will be a substitute and in his place everything points to Dani Olmo, who by characteristics can act as a false striker. The flanks will be occupied by Lamine and Raphinha, both 'on fire' after their performance in the Super Cup final.
The complete Barça eleven is as follows: Iñaki Peña, Kounde, Cubarsí, Araujo, Gerard Martín, Gavi, Pedri, Frenkie de Jong, Lamine, Raphinha and Olmo.
This is Betis' line-up for the match: Vieites, Aitor, Bartra, Natan, Perraud, Johnny, Altimira, Jesús, Isco, Juanmi and Vitor Roque.
See You soon!
