La Liga is back! Welcome to LIVE coverage of the Seville Derby, and potentially one of the strangest editions of this famous fixture. With no fans present and neither team playing a real fixture for three months it is hard to know what to expect, but it’s usually a lively affair when these cross-town rivals clash and completing a league double over Betis would aid Sevilla's quest for a top-four finish. Team news is on the way shortly...

38'
Half a chance for Munir as a knock-down comes his way, but he puts a little too much on his poke past the last defender and Robles collects.
35'
Moreno thinks he's fouled going up for header but doesn't get the decision, allowing Ocampos to run at Betis' backline. He finds Reguilon in space, but the left-back loses that when he cuts onto his right foot and the following shot is blocked.
32'
There haven't been too many chances to photograph Fekir on or near the ball so far. The action has now resumed.
30'
With 30 minutes gone, it's time for a drinks break. Sevilla have been firmly on top so far and the tempo has been admirable, given the circumstances.
27'
Another great Sevilla chance isn't taken! This time De Jong is the culprit, heading wide after a pinpoint cross from Munir, who had done really well to fashion the chance.
25'
Fekir, who has been frustrated thus far, can't quite make the ball stick and - in the referee's eyes - fouls Munir. Betis could do with getting him and Tello on the ball more.
21'
Sevilla really should be ahead. A clever corner routine fools Betis and Kounde has a free header - seven yards out at the front post - but he puts it wide.
18'
Moreno wins Betis' first corner but it comes to nothing as Borja give away a free-kick trying to get to a short pass.
15'
For those watching on TV, that bottom tier is filled with CGI fans who have disappeared a couple of times. The artificial crowd noise has been pleasant so far though.
14'
De Jong rises highest at a deep corner, but Robles is able to save his looping header with ease.
11'
Reguilon looking dangerous coming forward so far.

Ocampos rattles the post! From a tight angle, and with not much else on, Ocampos creates a little room and unleashes a fierce shoot which leaves the goal frame shaking.
9'
Fekir, who is lining up on the Betis right so far, gives away a foul with a clumsy hack.
5'
Reguilon gets into a good position on the Sevilla left and cuts the ball back to Munir, who fluffs his lines and cannot make a clean connection as he shoots first time.
4'
Torres switches the play nicely to find Navas on the right, but he cannot get past the bleached-blonde Tello.
2'
Betis pressing early on and Vaclik has already had a couple of nervy moments.

There is to be a minute's silence before kick-off in tribute to those who have lost their lives to COVID-19.

Here we go - El Gran Derbi is just minutes away, with both teams ready in the tunnel and the subs taking their socially-distanced places on the benches.

Betis had won only one of their last eight games in all competitions before lockdown struck, but that was a 2-1 triumph over Real Madrid last time out.
20:50
Sevilla players have been in trouble for floating lockdown rules during the crisis, and the head of La Liga has warned players to behave after others in the league followed the Sevilla quartet's ill-advised lead.
