[Verdiblanco de Holanda]

SQUAD NEWS :

No Juan Miranda after suffering an injury against Celtic mid-week, so Álex Moreno the only fit left back option in the side.

Bellerín, Willian José, Rui Silva, Rodri and Camarasa all fresh-legged so expect some rotation from the side that played in the UEL

Hey, ho, let's go!

Leandro Cabrera equalises in the 97th minute to level the score and split the points. Betis the dominant side throughout the game but couldn’t hold the lead after Germán Pezzella was sent off. Real Betis 2-2 Espanyol

[Verdiblanco de Holanda]

Borja Iglesias was very good mid-week against Celtic but he must be nervous watching Willian José today. They share a lot of similarities but the Brazilian just has that edge technically on the ball. He plays with more of an elegance than his Spanish counterpart.
