Barcelona manager Hansi Flick is expected to make several changes for Saturday’s La Liga meeting with Real Betis as he looks to protect key players ahead of two major fixtures.

The Catalan side travel to Seville for the match, with kick-off scheduled for 19:30 Moscow time. According to Sport, Flick plans to rotate his team before Barcelona face PSG on 20 October and Real Madrid on 25 October.

Jules Kounde is likely to start at right-back, while Xavi Espart could come into the team on the left side of defence.

There may also be changes in attack, with Karim Adeyemi expected to replace Anthony Gordon and Gabriel Jesus also set to feature from the start.
