The Betis squad trained this morning at the Luis del Sol Training Centre in preparation for next Sunday's match against CD Mirandés, a session in which Piccini and Xavi Torres were not able to participate and therefore sidelined for the sixth match day of the 'Liga' Adelante (the second division). Álex Martínez will also miss the match although he did some work with the ball today with the fitness trainer, Fran Molano. He is still recovering from the sprain in his left knee.

Today's session combined physical training in the gym and a variety of exercises on the training pitch in which footvolley matches prevailed. High spirits after last Sunday's triumph against Girona FC (1-3) were predominant throughout the session. In readiness for the forthcoming match Julio Velázquez's pupils will be back training tomorrow, Saturday.
