ℹ️ Team News: Valencia
Roman Yaremchuk (Knee injury) and Mouctar Diakhaby (Knee injury) will not be taking part for Valencia manager Rubén Baraja.
It’s our opinion that Los Che should kick off with a 4-2-3-1 formation this time with Giorgi Mamardashvili, Dimitri Foulquier, Cristhian Mosquera, Cenk Ozkacar, Jesus Vazquez, Pepelu, Javier Guerra, Fran Perez, Andre Almeida, Diego Lopez and Hugo Duro.
🗞️ Team News: Real Betis
Due to a completely healthy group to choose from, the Real Betis manager Manuel Pellegrini doesn’t have any fitness concerns to speak of coming into this game.
From our viewpoint, Béticos will likely make use of a 4-2-3-1 system with a starting lineup of Rui Silva, Youssouf Sabaly, German Pezzella, Chadi Riad, Juan Miranda, Johnny, Guido Rodriguez, Pablo Fornals, Isco, Nabil Fekir and Willian Jose.
✨ Prediction
Our feeling is that Real Betis could find themselves struggling to break down this Valencia lineup who we think will be able to grind out a win.
We’re therefore anticipating a very competitive encounter with a 1-0 win for Valencia at the end of this game.
Let’s see.
