Latest Real Betis vs Osasuna team information
Real Betis are flying high thanks to the impressive form of Antony – on loan from Man United, who has scored eight goals since January, including a strike against Fiorentina recently. He will certainly start, alongside playmaker Isco in the No.10 position.
However, Betis will be without Ezequiel Avila and Diego Llorente through injury. Marc Roca is also doubtful with a foot problem. Several changes are expected from the midweek game, with Adrian, Johnny Cardoso, Abde Ezzalzouli and Cucho Hernandez all likely to start.
Osasuna welcome back centre-back Alejandro Catena from suspension. Jon Moncayola remains a doubt due to a thigh injury.
The remaining lineup is likely to remain the same as the match against Villarreal, with Ruben Garcia starting up front and Ante Budimir – who has 18 goals in La Liga this season – continuing to be Osasuna's number one striker.

Latest Real Betis vs Osasuna football review
Real Betis beat Fiorentina 4-3 on aggregate to set up a UEFA Europa Conference League final against Chelsea on May 28. Thursday's 2-2 draw was enough to take Manuel Pellegrini's side one step closer to a European trophy.
However, they have a fierce race ahead of them in La Liga. Real Betis are currently sixth, one point behind Villarreal (fifth) and four points behind Athletic Bilbao (fourth). At least they are assured of a top-seven finish, but the bigger target is Champions League football – something they have not achieved since 2005-06.
Betis are in good form with three consecutive wins in La Liga against Girona, Valladolid and Espanyol. Their final three games will be against Rayo Vallecano, Atletico Madrid and Valencia – matches that will decide their place in next season's Champions League.
On the other hand, Osasuna have no intention of giving up. Coach Vicente Moreno's team is currently ranked 9th, equal on points with Rayo (8th) and only 2 points behind Celta Vigo (7th). 8th place will help them enter the Conference League play-off round, while the top 7 will bring a ticket to the Europa League group stage - a promising goal when they have not returned to Europe since the 2006-07 UEFA Cup season.
Osasuna lost 4-2 to Villarreal, but before that they won against Girona, Valladolid and Sevilla. However, they have lost all three of their last meetings with Real Betis in La Liga, including a 2-1 defeat in the first leg and the most recent trip to Seville in October 2023.
