The expert knows Barcelona will be motivated to clinch its spot in the top four, and it has a clear edge in talent. It has scored 17 more goals than Betis while allowing four fewer, and it has lost just twice on the road this season. La Blaugrana has the second-best road mark in the league, taking 31 points from 17 games. Memphis Depay (11 goals) and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (nine) are more than capable of unlocking the Betis back line. Barcelona leads the league in possession (64.9 percent) and is second in shots (479).    Â
Eimer also has taken into account that Real Betis won the Copa del Rey for the third time in team history last month. It also is fighting for its first top-four league finish since 2005. It has struggled to find wins lately but has lost just once in its past eight games (3-4-1). The Green and Whites won the first meeting between the teams 1-0 this season at Camp Nou, getting a goal from Juanmi. The 28-year-old has 14 goals, one of five players with at least five. Betis is third in the league in shots (467) and puts more than 35 percent on target.
