Real Betis captain Joaquin Sanchez has completed his personalised training plan given by Rubi, which will see him enter the final fixtures of this campaign in peak condition, starting tonight in El Gran Derbi.
The derby between Betis and Sevilla has always been regarded as a special game, and it is also the fixture that Joaquin has played the most in all his career.
In total, the 38-year-old has played 37 times against the team from Nervion, recording eight wins, 10 draws and 19 losses.
Joaquin is also gunning for another personal record, which is to be the outfield player who has made the most appearances in LaLiga Santander, as he is currently on 544, seven behind former Real Madrid forward Raul Gonzalez.
Sevilla captain Jesus Navas will also become the player who has made the most appearances for Sevilla in El Gran Derbi, should he play on Thursday night, overtaking Pablo Blanco.
