Overview

• The jornada 6 meeting is set for Wednesday, 27 August, after LaLiga advanced it to help Celta and Betis prepare for continental play.
• Betis travel without Nelson Deossa, Isco, Pau López, Diego Llorente, Marc Roca and Abde, according to team and local reports.
• Manuel Pellegrini said Deossa is not expected to be available until at least September as he completes his recovery.
• With Pau López out, Betis must choose in goal between Adrián and Álvaro Vallés, with local reporting indicating Vallés is the likely starter.
• Celta will be without defender Carl Starfelt and coach Claudio Giráldez emphasizes collective improvement and the development of Hugo Sotelo, as full roster slots and salary limits mean any late signing would require a departure after leaving Joseph Aidoo and Franco Cervi out of the squad.
