Lineups and key players

Real Betis projected starting lineup:

  • Rui Silva
  • Youssouf Sabaly
  • Luiz Felipe
  • German Pezzella
  • Alex Moreno
  • Guido Rodriguez
  • William Carvalho
  • Luiz Henrique
  • Sergio Canales
  • Rodri
  • Borja Iglesias

Luiz Henrique is the key player to watch out for. He dropped a very good game in the previous meeting against Roma, even though he came off the bench. Henrique was involved in the two goals scored, with a goal and an assist. He should be able to get a starting spot in this fixture.

Roma projected starting lineup:

  • Rui Patricio
  • Gianluca Mancini

  • Roger Ibanez
  • Bryan Cristante
  • Nicola Zalewski
  • Nemanja Matic

Tammy Abraham is the key player to watch out for. He didn’t score in their last match against Lecce but had a great impact as he won the game winning penalty. Abraham should be able to find the back of the net in the next game, which is important.

Prediction and betting tips

Real Betis continue to maintain good form ahead of the home fixture against Roma. They have three wins, a draw and a loss in the last five games and even won the Round 3 tie against the Italian team. Roma bounced back with a 2-1 win in their next game. But they’ll be missing key players for the Round 4 tie.

Dybala is missing out due to injury, while Zaniolo is on suspension. Both teams have faced off twice, and Betis have won each of them. The predictions for this match are Draw No Bet — Real Betis, BTTS (Yes), and Tammy Abraham to score anytime.

Los Verdiblancos have the home advantage, and with their form, a home win is very much possible. Both teams have scored the two times they’ve played. Abraham is the target man for Roma. He has a high chance of scoring.
