Atlético - Betis: Betis' Youth Academy to the Rescue at the Metropolitano
Atlético de Madrid hosts Betis in a crucial LaLiga match, with the Verdiblancos presenting a squad with notable injury absences. Coach Manuel Pellegrini has been forced to turn to the youth academy to complete the list, including youngsters Germán, Gilherme, Ortiz, and Mendy in the expedition.
The absences due to physical problems are significant, with Sabaly (sprain), Chimy Ávila (recovery), and Fran Vieites (soleus injury) ruled out, seeking to recover for a possible European final.
Added to these are the already confirmed absences of Diego Llorente, Marc Roca, and Bellerín, who will not play again this season. However, the presence of youth players like Ángel Ortiz, who already participated in the match against Rayo Vallecano, brings freshness and youth to the team.
Alongside him, Jesús Rodríguez, Mendy, Germán, and Guilherme join the expedition traveling to Madrid. Betis will fly to the capital to face this important match at the Metropolitano, also with their minds set on the upcoming European final. The called-up players will seek to give their best to add important points against an always combative Atlético de Madrid.
