Real Betis, sitting seventh with nine points after three wins and a single loss and a balanced 5‑5 goal tally, will host bottom‑side Elche, who have managed just two points from two draws and three defeats, conceding 13 while scoring six. The hosts will look to consolidate their recent surge and climb back into the European spots, whereas Elche’s priority will be to pick up a first win and avoid slipping further down the table.

With the gap between seventh and nineteenth stark, the match promises a clear test of Betis’ ambition against Elche’s fight for survival.
