On-loan Vitor Roque is rumoured to be coming back to Brazil after failing to settle at Real Betis. Although the Brazilian had a good run in the beginning, the honeymoon phase didn’t last and Barcelona are looking to sell him for 25M. Los Verdiblancos will not want to purchase him due to the elevated price, while the host club are looking to recover as much as they can from the invested 31M.
Barcelona drew with Atlético de Madrid at Montjuic in a remarkable 4-4 draw in the Copa del Rey semifinals. The second leg is scheduled for early April at the Metropolitano. The former were two goals behind by the tenth minute, but came back and were leading 3-2. But a late collapse after Flick substituted Pedri, resulted in the tie.
Most fans were happy with the performance, as defender Pau Cubarsí scored. Barcelona dominated the encounter, but missed vital chances to take a lead.
Frenkie de Jong impressed the critics as he led the midfield after a slow start. The Dutchman has often been lambasted for being passive without the ball, which was the total opposite on Tuesday. He was seen running and orchestrated the transition from the defence to the attack.

Dani Olmo and Pedri gave Atlético de Madrid a hard time defending, as both midfielders were placed high and found their attackers on multiple occasions. However, when Los Colchoneros escaped Barcelona’s pressure, Flick’s risky highline was bypassed, leading to important chances.
Marc Bernal and Marc-André Ter Stegen remain sidelined with injuries. Andreas Christensen is expected to return, although head coach Hansi Flick has not confirmed his presence yet.
Barcelona predicted line-up vs Real Sociedad (4-3-3): Szczęsny; Balde, Cubarsí, Martinez, Koundé; De Jong, Pedri, Dani Olmo; Raphinha, Lewandowski, Yamal.
After losing to Real Betis (3-0), Real Sociedad found the path to winning ways with a 3-0 victory against Leganés.
However, in their most recent match in the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey, they suffered a narrow 0-1 loss due to a goal from Endrick in the 19th minute. The return game will take place in five weeks at the Santiago Bernabéu.
Imanol Alguacil’s team dominated the tie, conceding only a few chances in the second half. However, the victory came at a price. Nayef Aguerd and Arsen Zakharyan left the pitch injured. Although they shouldn’t be absent for long, they could miss the clash against Barcelona.
Real Sociedad qualified for the Europa League Round of 16, where they’ll face Manchester United. They defeated Midtjylland 5-2 in the Reale Arena after winning the first leg in Denmark. Domestically, their performances are more worrying as they sit in 9th place. Only one point separates them from European qualification.

Sheraldo Becker and Takefusa Kubo are suspended, while Hamari Traoré, Jon Pacheco, and Luka Sučić will be out due to their injuries.
Real Sociedad predicted line-up vs Barcelona (4-1-4-1): Remiro; López, Jon Martin, Zubeldia, Aramburu; Zubimendi; Sergio Gómez, Pablo Marin, Olasagasti, Barrenetxea; Oskarsson.
Bet hereBarcelona showed their best and worst face against Atlético de Madrid. Coach Flick’s assault-oriented approach allows for the best comebacks, but can cancel previous efforts with the wrong substitutes. Despite that, the Catalans are full of confidence, as most of the stars did not play the entire match.
Real Sociedad have struggled against teams that attack well and press high. To add insult to injury, the absences of Becker, Kubo, and Sučić have forced Alguacil to find a new formula. Without three of their most prominent talents, Barcelona are likely to face a toothless side in front of the net.
Real Sociedad’s 4-1-4-1 formation plays into the hands of Dani Olmo. The Spaniard had a great match against Atlético, staying in the advanced pockets of space where he could easily reach the final third.
Zubimendi is likely to be overwhelmed by the hosts’ central overload, which could leave Olmo unmarked. When fit, the player has demonstrated he can accelerate Barcelona’s transition and land in scoring positions.
