Predicted Line-Up
Real Betis possible starting lineup:
Silva; Ruibal, Pezzella, Riad, Abner; Rodriguez, Roca; Diao, Isco, Perez; Willian Jose
Real Madrid possible starting lineup:
Kepa; Vazquez, Rudiger, Alaba, Mendy; Valverde, Kroos, Modric; Bellingham; Rodrygo, Diaz
Real Betis faces several player absences for the upcoming match due to fitness issues. Notable players such as Nabil Fekir, William Carvalho, Claudio Bravo, Youssouf Sabaly, and Marc Bartra will be sidelined, while Rodri is uncertain to play due to a muscular problem. Additionally, Hector Bellerin will be unavailable due to a red card received in the previous goalless draw against Almeria.
Real Betis is expected to make changes from their Copa del Rey lineup, with players like Marc Roca, Assane Diao, Aitor Ruibal, and Abner anticipated to feature in the starting XI.
On the Real Madrid front, there is hope for Luka Modric's return from a thigh issue as he resumes training. Kepa Arrizabalaga could return as the goalkeeper after overcoming a muscular problem. However, Real Madrid continues to grapple with a series of absences, including Vinicius Junior, Eduardo Camavinga, Arda Guler, Aurelien Tchouameni, Eder Militao, Thibaut Courtois, and the long-term absence of Dani Carvajal due to a calf issue.
Despite the challenges, in-form Brahim Diaz is expected to maintain his place in the starting lineup. If Modric is fit to play, Joselu may find himself on the bench for this weekend's game.
