The First Female does not finish catching the rhythm in this 2021. The storm Filomena and the COVID-19 pandemic have caused more than a dozen postponements in the last three days. The last one, the one announced yesterday by Barcelona and Athletic because of a positive case and ten close contacts in the red and white squad. Total, there are three games that will not be played on this day 17 (Granadilla-Eibar and Deportivo-Sporting de Huelva were already suspended due to coronavirus). Thus, after the victory in extremis of Real Madrid on Santa Teresa yesterday, the bulk of the matches are held this Wednesday, with Europe and salvation as main struggles.
Madrid CFF receives Sevilla in Matapiñonera (13:30 hours) with Champions squares between eyebrows. After achieving three consecutive victories, the white team is in sixth position, with 28 points, just three from Atlético, third, and six from Real Madrid, second.

The Verdiblanco team, penultimate, continues looking for a reaction that not even with Juan Carlos Amorós on the bench has arrived. Betis has not won since last November 11, 2020, accumulating nine consecutive defeats. They have quality, work capacity and dedication, but they don't hit the mark.
His fight, that of salvation, is also that of Logroño and Rayo Vallecano (6:30 p.m., LaLiga Sports TV), with 10 and 15 points respectively, who will star in Las Gaunas a high tension duel with much more than a victory at stake.
