So far, Betis have performed flawlessly in the group stage of the Europa League. The club won in all three rounds and now leads the quartet with nine points in the table. Ludogorets is five points behind Betikos from the second place. In the last round Manuel Pellegrini’s wards played with the main rival in the group, Roma. Almost until the end of the game, the score in their meeting was equal, but in 88 minutes Luis Enrique scored the winning goal, ending the game with the score 2:1. He also made an assist to Rodriguez for the first goal. However, Betis has not achieved the same success in the last rounds of La Liga. There, the team lost points in two matches in confrontations with not the strongest rivals such as Valladolid (0:0) and Celta (0:1). Before that, Pellegrini’s wards often won, so, despite several setbacks, the club is high in the table in fifth place. Right now only winger Juanmi is in the infirmary at the Beticos, whose return date from injury is still unknown. Also suspended in the European Cup are Martin Montoya and Lorenzo Moron.
Roma, as we said above, could not defeat the main rival in the group in the last round of the LE. Moreover, in their confrontation, the club was the first to open an account. A goal from a penalty kick was scored by Dybala. But the Romans could not score more, having conceded the second goal in the last minutes. Plus, at the very end of the meeting, the Mourinho team received a direct red card for rough play by Zaniolo. Now, with only one victory in the table, Roma are in third place in the group, six points behind the leader. It is noteworthy that, unlike Betis, in the last rounds of Serie A, the yellow-reds” only won. In two matches the team beat inferior rivals Lecce (2:1) and Inter (2:1). However, Mourinho’s wards were inferior to several opponents from the lines above Atalanta (0:1) and Udinese (0:4). Roma are currently in fifth place in the league table, being only one point behind the two rivals above. The Yellow-Reds, being very active in the last transfer market, lost a lot of players due to injuries at different times. Now, in addition to Wijnaldum, Karsdorp and Selik, who are in the infirmary, Dybala has also been added, who received damage in the last match. Moreover, due to the recovery, the Argentine even runs the risk of missing the 2022 World Cup. Also, the game with Betis will definitely miss Zaniolo due to the removal in the last match.
