How Real Betis go into the game<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Real Betis finished fifth last season on 60 points, a strong campaign that brought European football. La Cartuja will be lively for the opener and they will fancy another top-six push.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cucho Hernandez leads the attacking threat, with Antony and Abde Ezzalzouli adding creativity out wide. Making home advantage count against a familiar rival is the aim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

How Real Sociedad go into the game<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Real Sociedad finished 10th last season on 46 points, a disappointing campaign by their recent standards. Getting back towards the European places is the target under a settled set-up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mikel Oyarzabal remains the key man and a reliable source of goals. La Real have won at Betis before, but their away form will need to improve to spring a surprise.<\/p>\n\n\n
