Team News

Real Betis
Real Sociedad
  • Isco was hauled off against Las Palmas with an ankle injury and will be amiss for arguably Betis' most important game of the season.
  • Nabil Fekir will most likely step in for Isco.
  • Abner earned an assist against Las Palmas and will likely have the left-back spot.
  • Javi Galan is out with a finger injury; Kieran Tierney should replace him.
  • Take Kubo earned man of the match against Valencia on his first start back for some time following a struggle with injury. He could be used centrally again.

Prediction

  • Real Betis, unbeaten in their last five, host Real Sociedad in arguably the most important game of the weekend - a crucial six pointer at the Benito Villamarin. La Real have secured European football, whether that be Conference or Europa League, but Betis dropped points against Las Palmas midweek and now only one point separates these two going into Sunday's match.
  • Whoever wins this tie will likely claim the last available spot to get into the Europa League, making for a really entertaining watch this late on in the campaign. However, Isco had to come off before half time in the draw with Las Palmas and will most likely miss the match - advantage Sociedad.
  • Betis haven't lost a game at home since the 8th of March, but could be in for a shock here which could amount some pressure onto Manuel Pellegrini.
