Deportivo La Coruna
Deportivo will be without Angeliño for the visit of Real Betis because of suspension. Giacomo Quagliata is expected to start at left-back, with David Mella the alternative.
Ximo Navarro and Lucas Noubi are both expected to return to the defence after sitting out the game against Sevilla. Each had started four of Deportivo's previous five matches, with José Giménez also expected to retain his place at centre-back. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is set to lead the attack once more, having scored four goals and provided two assists in his last five appearances.
Real Betis
Manuel Pellegrini freshened up Real Betis for the win over Getafe, but none of the changes is expected to stick for the trip to Deportivo. Ángel Ortiz, Valentín Gómez and Nelson Deossa made their first starts in Betis's last five matches, but Héctor Bellerín, Marc Bartra and Pablo Fornals are expected to return to the eleven this weekend.
At the back, Diego Llorente and Aitor Ruibal remain unavailable with a broken nose and a knee problem respectively; Betis hope to have both back during the international break. Bartra is also expected to return at right centre-back, with Natan alongside him rather than in that role. Further forward, Isco has started each of Betis's last five matches and is expected to continue just behind Cucho Hernández.
