Pellegrini: "Three unforgettable years at Málaga"

Pellegrini reflects fondly on his three years at Málaga but emphasizes Betis must secure a home win after losing to Barcelona.

Betis manager Pellegrini spoke ahead of his side's home fixture against Málaga, a club where he spent three memorable years. He acknowledged the suspension of their previous match was justified and stressed the importance of returning to winning ways at home after their recent defeat to Barcelona.

Pellegrini confirmed Junior remains unavailable as he continues his recovery, while Antony has progressed from a viral illness and will be included in the squad. He also praised Parrott's training performances and noted Ceballos's improving form on the pitch.

Despite his affection for Málaga and the region, Pellegrini made clear that sentiment must be set aside when the teams meet, with Betis targeting all three points.
