Betis B has been tied with UCAM Murcia in the knockout promotional play-offs for the Second Division B in the draw held this afternoon at the 'Soccer City' in Las Rozas (Madrid). The green-and-white reserves will visit ‘El Mayayo’ Stadium next weekend situated in Sangonera and with a capacity of some 2000 spectators. The second leg is scheduled to be held on the weekend of the 24th and 25th of May.

The Betis B coach, Oscar Cano, attended the Club's official media to give his first impressions of the rival that resulted from the draw: "UCAM Murcia is a team that has shown great superiority in their group. They have ambitious plans. There are players in the team who have played in higher leagues such as Gavilán, Robles, Bustillo, Barrancos, Henares and Picó. Like any knockout round it is going to be unpredictable and complicated".
