Barcelona's six-game winning streak ended with a disappointing 1-0 defeat against Deportivo Alaves on Wednesday.
Hansi Flick's side have already secured the La Liga title, and although they have a comfortable 11-point lead at the top of the table, the Catalan giants will be motivated to win this match in order to maintain their perfect home record.
As has been the case in the past couple of games, Barcelona remain without Lamine Yamal, who is recovering from a hamstring injury to his left leg.
The Blaugrana could also have Fermin Lopez and Frenkie de Jong unavailable for their last home game of the season, as both midfielders need further tests to confirm their availability.
On the other hand, Real Betis extended their unbeaten run to five games with a 2-1 victory over Elche on Tuesday.
The Andalusian side have a seven-point lead over sixth-placed Celta Vigo, and with only two games remaining, they have earned an automatic UEFA Champions League berth.
It is fair to say that the visitors do not particularly look forward to meeting Barcelona, as they have no wins in the last 10 H2Hs (D12, L8).
Manuel Pellegrini cannot call on the services of former Barcelona player Marc Bartra, who remains sidelined with a foot injury. Aitor Ruibal is another confirmed absentee for Real Betis on Sunday night because of a fresh meniscus problem, while Angel Ortiz is touch and go with a muscular issue.

Whispers Predicts: Barcelona 3-1 Real Betis
At 1.38, Barcelona are considered favourites by the bookmakers, which is unsurprising considering they have 18 wins in as many home games this season.
The Catalan giants have also won eight of the last 10 encounters between these sides, so we expect them to claim all the spoils here.
Interestingly, the reverse fixture was an eight-goal thriller, and six of the last seven H2Hs went above the 3.5-goal threshold.
On that note, over 3.5 total goals can be backed at 1.88.
> Over 3.5 total goals at 1.88 | Likelihood: Probable
> BTTS – Yes at 1.58 | Likelihood: Probable
> HT result: Barcelona at 1.74 | Likelihood: Probable
> Barcelona & BTTS – Yes at 2.30 | Likelihood: Probable
> Correct Score: 3-1 at 10.00 | Likelihood: Outsider
