Lo Celso's World Cup Run Allows Betis to Request La Liga Postponement

Real Betis plans to ask La Liga to postpone their first match of the season following Argentina's progression to the World Cup semi-finals. Giovani Lo Celso's involvement in the tournament allows the club to seek a delay for the fixture against Valencia.

La Liga president Javier Tebas had previously indicated that the first round of matches could be split to accommodate international players.
