Real Betis banked another point in mid-table in their early kick-off stalemate against Valencia.

Victor Sanchez's men hit the woodwork in each half, through Ruben Castro in the seventh minute and then Petros six minutes after the break.

But in the end, it stayed honours even, keeping Betis four points above their visitors at the Estadio Benito Villamarin.

Deportivo, back in action following last week's postponement against Betis, went in front just before half-time through Emre Colak.
