The Spanish Football Federation on Friday cancelled Sunday's league match between Betis and Villarreal B because of an outbreak of the A/H1N1 virus in the Betis squad.
The Spanish Second Division club has 13 players infected with the A/H1N1 virus and has been unable to train for the past three days to prevent a spread of the disease
The infected players are Sergio Garcia, Arzu, Sunny, Carlos Garcia, Nelson, Juande, Damia, Nano, Caffa, Pavone, Emana, Fernando Vega and Israel Bascon.
Betis was relegated from the BBVA Primera Liga last season and is currently looking to gain promotion back to Spain's top flight.
The match will now be placed at a later date.
