The Champions League returns to the Estadio Benito Villamarín on a night when Real Betis must take points at home, while Feyenoord arrive as a team still unbeaten in their own league and having just thrashed their opponents in the cup in mid-month. Real Betis have been inconsistent in their own league, losing 2-5 in their latest match, but before that they had just won 3-2 in Europe, a game in which both sides' defences were wide open. Feyenoord, meanwhile, are on a winning run, scoring freely and conceding little, though their defence still showed cracks in the 4-3 win. This game is likely to be open from the start, as both teams tend to score from quick attacking moves. If Real Betis can dominate possession and push high as planned, the game will flow toward the hosts, but if they let Feyenoord counter frequently, it could turn into a back-and-forth affair that goes down to the final minutes. The first thing to watch after kick-off is how high Real Betis set their defensive line, so as not to give Feyenoord space behind the defence.
