Real Betis Balompié now know the date and time for their trip to Balaídos. Manuel Pellegrini's side will face Celta Vigo on Sunday, October 25 at 16:15, in the tenth matchday of LaLiga.
This fixture concludes a demanding October schedule for the green-and-whites, who will play four home matches before travelling to Vigo. The month begins after the international break with a clash against Osasuna on October 11 at the Estadio de la Cartuja, where Betis currently sit third with 16 points. European fixtures against Porto and Feyenoord follow, along with the league classic against Barcelona.
Pellegrini's team approaches this sequence of games in strong form. Following the 1-1 draw with Deportivo last matchday, Betis are unbeaten in their last five, with four wins and a draw. This positive momentum will be vital for a month where home solidity, with all domestic matches at La Cartuja, could prove decisive.
The return of Dani Ceballos to the club is another factor for this phase of the season. The midfielder is working to readjust to the team's system, bringing experience and creativity in build-up play. His integration will be closely watched during this busy period.
With the Osasuna game as the immediate target, Betis will aim for three points against a side sitting 13th in the table. Their last meeting, in April, ended 1-1. Full squad details are on our squad page. The trip to Vigo on the 25th will cap an October painted entirely green-and-white at La Cartuja.
