Cucho Hernández is still out injured, and Facundo Bernal misses the game through suspension. Lo Celso has not been included, and so far the reason for his absence has not been made public.
After this match, nine Betis internationals will leave for their national teams. Pellegrini's side then face Navalcarnero in the Copa del Rey on 12 November and return to league action on 21 November against Sevilla in the first derby of the season.
