Real Madrid: Diego Lopez; Nacho Fernandez, Raul Albiol, Ricardo Carvalho, Marcelo; Carlos Casemiro,Luka Modric; Cristiano Ronaldo, Mesut Ozil, Jose Callejon; Karim Benzema
Real Betis: Adrian; Javier Chica, Antonio Amaya, Paulao, Alex Martínez; Jose Canas, Benat Etxebarria; Joel Campbell, Dorlan Pabon, Nosa Igiebor; Ruben Castro
Diego Lopez makes a great save from Pabon, but Ruben Castro is on hand to slam home the rebound. Betis' celebrations are cut short - rightfully again - by the offside flag though.
What would be known as a 'Hail Mary' in NFL sends Jose Callejon galloping forward, he's thwarted - rightfully - by the offside flag though.
The Betis defender has come off worse in a challenge with the little Croatian. After receiving some lengthy treatment on the pitch, he hops off where he continues to receive more treatment.
When Real Betis hosted Real Madrid earlier in the season, Benat's first half strike proved the difference. Los Blancos will be keen to avenge that defeat, although they're much changed with Borussia Dortmund to come in midweek.
The most interesting inclusion in either side is that of Carlos Henrique Casemiro. He's a young Brazilian midfielder who joined Real Madrid Castilla in January, certainly one to keep an eye on this evening.
