German Pezzella - Makes seven clearances in win Pezzella had two off-target shots and made seven clearances, two interceptions and one block during Saturday's 2-1 win over Cadiz.

Impact Pezzella had a decent stat line here, highlighted by his seven clearances, and even went up the field to pose a threat on aerial plays. This is good news for the centre back, who experienced lots of ups and downs over the last few months. He'll try to remain productive during Friday's visit to Real Sociedad.

Marc Bartra - Makes 12 clearances in win Bartra made one tackle (won) and 12 clearances while picking up a yellow card during Saturday's 2-1 win over Cadiz.

Impact Bartra had one of his best performances of the season so far, leading Betis' defense with a season-high 12 clearances and keeping opposing forwards at bay during the entire match. Over the last three starts, the centre back has been outstanding, racking up 30 clearances and helping his side to concede just two goals. Up next for him is Friday's visit to Real Sociedad.

Claudio Bravo - Concedes once in win Bravo made two saves and conceded one goal during Saturday's 2-1 win over Cadiz.

Impact Bravo couldn't do much when Ivan Alejo appeared completely unmarked in front of him after a defensive giveaway to open the scoring for the opposition but other than that was very solid between the sticks. The veteran goalkeeper started the last three matches, with just two goals conceded, and everything indicates he'll remain in the net for Friday's visit to Real Sociedad.

Borja Iglesias - Nets winner off bench against Cadiz Iglesias scored a penalty goal on his lone shot and drew two fouls after coming off the bench during Saturday's 2-1 win over Cadiz.

Impact Iglesias was brought at the hour mark to replace Willian Jose and ended up as the hero for Betis as he suffered a penalty and then stepped up to convert it himself and score the game-winning goal in the 85th minute. This was the third goal over the last four appearances for the striker and he'll hope this helps his case to be in the starting XI for Friday's visit to Real Sociedad.

Nabil Fekir - Provides assist in win Fekir made an assist, had two off-target shots, created two chances, sent in six inaccurate crosses and drew six fouls during Saturday's 2-1 win over Cadiz.

Impact Fekir was back after serving his two-match ban for violent conduct against Athletic Bilbao and had another nice performance, displaying creativity and skills that left opposing defenders most of the times with only fouls as resources to stop him. And the playmaker was involved on his side's first goal, assisting Cristian Tello with a beautiful backheel pass. With six goals and seven assists over 27 league apperances this season, Fekir will try to keep it up during Friday's visit to Real Sociedad.

Cristian Tello - Scores off bench in win Tello scored a goal off his lone shot after coming off the bench during Saturday's 2-1 win over Cadiz.

Impact Tello was brought in the 77th minute to replace Juanmi and made an immediate impact, drawing things level at 1-1 with a well-placed shot from outside the box just one minute later. This was the second goal of the season for the winger and he'll hope this helps him to keep getting playing time during Friday's visit to Real Sociedad.

Impact Bravo has kept 12 clean sheets in 39 appearances in all competitions since joining Betis from Manchester City in the summer of 2020.

Alex Moreno - Seals victory with goal Moreno had one goal on three shots (two off target), one assist, four crosses, three tackles, one interception and created two chances in the 4-1 victory over Osasuna on Sunday.

Impact After assisting Juanmi's second goal in the 46th minute, Juanmi managed to return the favor in the 88th minute. The midfielder has missed the last five matches, but hopefully this is a sign of what is to come in the next match against Cadiz.

APRIL 3, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

William Carvalho - Scores once in victory Carvalho had one goal on one shot, one tackle, two fouls and created one chance in the 4-1 victory over Osasuna on Sunday.

Impact After going up early, Carvalho managed to push his squad even further out of reach with his side's third goal in the 82nd minute. The midfielder is not typically on offensive threat, and it is unlikely he will score another in the next match against Cadiz.
