"Betis have a fantastic team with players of great quality. We have to show the same as we did against Atletico. It was a great victory, and it gives us more confidence, but we have to show it again tomorrow."
"I think that given the level he plays at and what he's showing, he's doing very well and deserves a contract renewal. He's an important player in the dressing room, he loves this club and could be captain in the future."
"When you want to be a leader, it's also important to be disciplined and give your all for the team, regardless of whether you play at full-back, center-back, or elsewhere. I'm very happy for him, he deserves to renew his contract and it's good news for everyone."
Barcelona travel to Estadio La Cartuja to face Real Betis aiming to extend a one-point lead atop La Liga after wins over Deportivo Alaves and Atletico Madrid. A victory would increase the advantage to four points while Real Madrid face Celta Vigo. Real Betis present a strong squad with high-quality players, requiring Barcelona to reproduce the Atletico performance. Eric Garcia signed a new five-year contract with Barcelona until 2031 and is an important dressing-room presence who could be captain in the future. Garcia overcame early-season injuries, has shown versatility across defensive roles, discipline, and professionalism. Fermin Lopez is back from injury and could play.
