Although the Tractor Boys have performed admirably thus far, they still need to maintain consistency and have as many healthy players as possible. That will not be a simple task.
Additionally, it’s unclear how they’ll react after losing to Rotherham United in the middle of the week, since that result might have taken a toll on them.
However, you have to have hope for Ipswich because they have performed admirably and consistently thus far.
It should be a brilliant occasion, and from a Betis perspective, they come into the match in good form, having won their last five in a row in all competitions. Manuel Pellegrini’s side are unbeaten in 11, dating back to the 1-0 defeat to Rangers in the Europa League in September.
Those streaks were extended against Aris Limassol on Thursday, but unfortunately for Betis, Claudio Bravo suffered a hamstring injury during the match, which has now been confirmed by Los Verdiblancos.
Bravo is expected to miss the next three to four with the injury, so he won’t play against Sevilla, not that he would have anyway given that Rui Silva was expected to be back in between the sticks for Real Betis. However, the Portuguese must now deputize in all competitions until the start of December at the earliest.
