The European fall left a handful of added consequences in Betis. Manuel Pellegrini prepares for this Sunday’s match against Celta de Vigo with numerous questions about which players he will have on the table to make up his eleven. And a dilemma focuses many lights: who will act on the left side? Álex Moreno is still injured, Guardado has not returned yet, Miranda left the Frankfurt clash touched and Aitor Ruibal must serve a sanction due to accumulation of warnings. Pellegrini has neither his natural pieces nor his usual replacements. Quite a problem that is added to the obvious fatigue of a squad that does not want to part with its objectives in the League.
Improvisation will make an appearance in Vigo. Sabaly, who has many games in a row as a starter, could be the alternative and change his right wing to the left. All this considering that Bellerin may be back on the right flank. The Chilean coach does not have many more resources to solve this unexpected display of problems in his left-handed band. Look to the future with concern but also the hope that Álex Moreno, decisive in this course, can return in the coming weeks.

Pellegrini is also aware of Fekir, who left Germany touched and that he must now serve a two-game ban in the League. He has the challenge that this break manages to recover the best version of the Frenchman. I also know look askance at Canales, who maintains a certain ailment in his foot despite being present in the line-ups of the last games. Betis travels to Vigo with multiplied questions and the need to give me some secondary players to step forward on the pitch.
