Levante needs to believe and their coach cannot falter. After fourteen games without winning this season, Javier Pereira remains firm. He does not sign the tie, he wants to win against Betis and end the bad streak once and for all
Pereira believes in winning mentality
We have the loss of Melero. Postigo I do not think he will arrive in the appropriate physical form. The more availability of players I have, the more tools I will have. Also, more competition is generated that helps increase the performance of the team. Besides, there are the physical forms of each player who are not all one hundred percent, because some have just come out of injury periods, I think that physically we have made an important advance. The coach also talked about the medical situation – I am not a doctor. I handle the players on high. I know that he has had muscular problems and that he is in the process of recovery with the doctors and restrainers. He is a very important player and we want to get him back as soon as possible.
Real Betis will be very tough opponent
They played on Thursday but they have a large squad that allows them to rotate. They have good individual quality and good collective organization. They submit you with that individual quality that Canales and Fekir have. We will have to be supportive in the defensive phase and try to hurt them in the offensive phase. Trying to have the ball because we can’t spend so much time in the defensive phase. Betis is a team that plays more with individualities and that becomes more disordered. But that disorder produces imbalances and imbalances in the defensive structure, but it also makes them leave spaces. What we have to do is be organized and disciplined to make our party.
