Most recent H2Hs: First clash in almost 26 years
The last encounter between Real Oviedo and Real Betis took place in February 2000. Betis won three of their last four meetings with Oviedo and are unbeaten in their last 12 H2Hs.
Real Oviedo preview: Couple of key absences
Real Oviedo were dealt a blow last time out with key defender Eric Bailly sustaining an injury in the stalemate at Deportivo Alaves. Although Ilyas Chaira has returned from injury, Ovie Ejaria and Nacho Vidal are still listed as questionable for this contest.
Striker Federico Vinas was sent off for two bookable offences against Alaves and will miss this game. This should give Alex Fores the opportunity to lead the line for the hosts this weekend.
Predicted lineup: Escandell (GK), Lopez, Calvo, Costas, Ahijado, Colombatto, Dendoncker, Brekalo, Reina, Hassan & Fores.
Last five matches
- Alaves 1-1 Real Oviedo

Real Betis preview: Looking to return to winning ways
Real Betis, on the other hand, have Isco Alarcon still sidelined with an injury and he will be unavailable for this game, while second-choice goalkeeper Adrian is doubtful due to fitness issues.
Diego Llorente, Junior Firpo, Natan, and Chimy Avila have all returned from injury, while Cedric Bakambu is back from the Africa Cup of Nations following DR Congo’s Round of 16 elimination, giving Pellegrini lots of options for this game. However, the Moroccan duo of Sofyan Amrabat and Abdessamad Ezzalzouli are still away due to the ongoing AFCON.
Predicted lineup: Valles (GK), Gomez, Natan, Bartra, Bellerin, Roca, Deossa, Fornals, Antony, Ruibal & Hernandez.
Last five matches
- Real Madrid 5-1 Real Betis
- Real Betis 4-0 Getafe

Player to watch: Cucho Hernandez
Cucho Hernandez scored Betis' only goal in their 5-1 defeat against Real Madrid last weekend. The former Watford forward has scored in three consecutive matches across all competitions and will look to extend that streak this weekend.
