Sevilla FC vs Real Betis Line-ups: predicted starting line-ups

The 'ELGRANDERBI' will take place on Sunday, November 30, starting at 4:15 PM (CET), at the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán Stadium. A duel that could allow both teams to continue climbing in LALIGA EA SPORTS. The historic rivalry between Betis and Sevilla paralyzes the Andalusian city.

To face the Seville derby, the coaches will seek to field their fittest players. Amidst the difficulties caused by their different absences, Matías Almeyda and Manuel Pellegrini will look to form the best possible line-up for Sevilla FC and Real Betis, respectively.

Predicted line-up for Sevilla FC against Real Betis

At Sevilla FC, Matías Almeyda has some confirmed absences for this match. These are three important players in his system: Nianzou and Azpilicueta in defense, and Alexis Sánchez in attack. Conversely, Carmona will return after serving his suspension against RCD Espanyol de Barcelona.

Thus, the predicted line-up for Sevilla FC against Real Betis could start with Vlachodimos between the posts. In defense, Mendy could return to the center alongside Marcão, with Carmona and Suazo on the flanks. Sow and Gudelj could occupy the double pivot, while the wings would be, for another matchday, for Juanlu and Rubén Vargas. Akor Adams would repeat up front with Peque playing as the attacking midfielder.

Manuel Pellegrini, Real Betis coach, has fewer confirmed absences. Only Pau López, although his absence has been covered reliably by Álvaro Vallés, and Antony, due to suspension. Aside from that, and pending possible rotations due to the Conference League match, the Chilean could field a very similar starting eleven of his preferred.

The predicted line-up for Real Betis against Sevilla FC would be formed by (from right to left) Bellerín, Bartra, Natan, and Ricardo Rodríguez in defense; Fornals and Amrabat in the midfield, and Giovanni Lo Celso in the attacking midfield position. Abde would occupy one wing and Cucho would be the main offensive reference for another matchday. The big question is who will fill Antony's position, unless Betis' appeals against the Brazilian's red card against Girona are successful. Rodrigo Riquelme and Aitor Ruibal are the two most likely options, as Isco's return to the starting lineup seems premature.
