Player to Watch: Raul Albiol Since we expect a close game and we don't see many goals being scored, our player to watch in this match is Raul Albio, despite the fact that both teams have some interesting offensive weapons. Still, Raul Albiol's experience on the defensive end is crucial for the Yellow Submarine and since they will likely have to keep a clean sheet if they want to beat Real Betis, the experienced Spaniard will have an important role in this game.
