The team led by Manuel Pellegrini, after being defeated last day in Montjuic against FC Barcelona and on Thursday in Glasgow against Rangers, has the obligation to re-emerge before the always uncomfortable set of Sergio Gonzalez. For its part, the Cádiz team, with a path very similar to that of the green and white with two wins, one draw and two defeats, dreams of returning to the path of victory to flirt with European positions.
Situation of both teams
Although the start of the season for the Seville team was not bad at all with a victory at La Cerámica and a draw at home against Atlético de Madrid, The first national team break of the current campaign has wreaked havoc on the entire team. Manuel Pellegrini. The Green and Whites had to visit the Lluís Companys Olympic Stadium the previous day and were handed a painful 5-0. Furthermore, at the premiere of the UEFA Europa League, The Andalusians were narrowly defeated by the Scottish Rangers.
On the part of Cádiz, the yellows, after the break, have only played the match against Athletic Club in San Mamés from last day. The team led by Sergio González lost by three goals to zero against ‘the lions’. One of the curiosities that Cádiz’s games have had this season is that they have received four red cards in five games. Although they are not two excessively aggressive teams, this statistic leads us to think that, playing against the team that received the most expulsions last season in all of Europe, It may be a safe bet to wait for some action at the limit of the regulations..
If all the confrontations in First division with the green and white as locals, The results predict a great omen for Pellegrini’s team. Of the twelve games played in the Benito Villamarin, The Sevillians have taken the three points on eight occasions and the Cádiz only on one occasion., while there have been three ties to one. The total balance of goals also favors the Betis with 25 points in favor and 10 against.
However, Sergio’s team can and should cling to the most recent matches and not so much to the historical record. Of the last four league matches, Betis has won one and drawn two, while the victory in favor of the people from Cádiz came in the last confrontation between the two. It was 0-2 on matchday 28 in which the locals received a red card to Sergio Canales and another for Aitor Ruibal.
Another of the keys to this match lies in Cádiz’s ability to keep a clean sheet, since the only time they have achieved this at Avenida de la Palmera was in last season’s victory.
Statements from the technicians
Manuel Pellegrini: “We are in the sixth day, you can’t make a drama either, but it would be important to add because these are key games to see if we are in the upper-middle or lower-middle zone.. They always like to beat Barcelona, Real Madrid or Atlético, but these home games are the ones where I think the fewer points we leave behind, the more chances we will have of reaching the European zone. Cádiz already gave us a lot of problems last season and surpassed us. “It is a team that may have changed its style with Sergio, but it has important forwards and we are going to have to be focused on defense.”
Sergio Gonzalez: “When you lose you are looking forward to the game. We have already learned to see if we are capable of turning it around because of the feelings we left with. We have a very large squad. That can generate a ‘problem’ for us. We have a wide range greater options. Now there are three games where it is favorable to introduce people who have not had the opportunity because his teammates were doing well and because of the physical wear and tear. Betis is a very difficult rival. It has an orderly mess. He has two very good pivots that give brutal balance to the team. It is totally different from what we found with Athletic“.
