Valverde (foot) was present and worked with the ball during the team's practice ahead of the upcoming clash against Betis.

Valverde is most likely ready to return after missing the previous game due to a foot contusion. The versatile man is currently expected to start at right-back, in which case Raul Asencio will move to a bench spot. However, Valverde's attacking upside may be limited from that position, as he's averaging 1.7 shots and 1.3 chances created per contest this season when operating as a full-back.
