Fidalgo back from illness as Betis prep for Elche without Cucho
Facundo Bernal serves his third suspended match and joins his national team; the clash is Sunday at the Martínez Valero.
The first team of Real Betis returned to training at the Luis del Sol sports city with their eyes on Elche. According to ABC, Álvaro Fidalgo has recovered from the virus that kept him off the trip to Dortmund and trained normally with his teammates, so he is available for Sunday's game at the Martínez Valero.
Pellegrini has every player available except Cucho Hernández, who is progressing through his injury recovery. No physical or muscular problems were reported after Tuesday's Champions League match, and Junior Firpo added another session with the group.
The confirmed absence is Facundo Bernal, who serves his third suspended match against Elche. The Uruguayan, who started in Dortmund, will join his national team after being called up by Diego Forlán for friendlies against Argentina and the Dominican Republic.
