Cadiz did manage a 1-1 draw at Barcelona last time out but haven't won in six matches heading into this weekend's round of fixtures. As a result, El Submarino Amarillo have fallen down to 14th on the league standings, just four points above the relegation zone.

In contrast, Betis moved within a point of sixth spot with a 1-0 win over Getafe. Los Verdiblancos manager Manuel Pellegrini revealed his target of qualifying for European football earlier this month, and that dream could take another step towards becoming a reality this weekend.

“Without a doubt, it’s a personal target and a personal requirement,” Pellegrini said. “I came to Betis for a sporting challenge and knowing the reality of the club, knowing it wasn’t going to be easy.

“But personally I always try to demand the maximum. I’m ambitious and I think we can do it [qualify for Europe], and that’s what I’ve conveyed to the players and luckily it’s been well-received."

A solitary strike from Guido Rodriguez inspired Betis to a 1-0 win over Cadiz in the reverse fixture in Seville earlier this season.
