Valencia did the job for themselves and Barcelona earlier today, but the La Liga leader failed to seize the ideal moment to make a key difference in the title race.
The Catalans only won a point against Betis at Montjuic (1:1), so after the 30th round they have four more points than their biggest rival.
With this draw, Barça ended their nine-game winning streak, and the Sevilla team's streak of six triumphs also ended.
The most important thing in a small derby was seen at the very start of the game.
Hansi Flick's team took the lead in the 7th minute when Gavi scored, and as early as the 17th minute, the final score was set - Wojciech Szczesny's goal was scored by Natan.
The hosts had enough chances to win in the second half, as did Betis on the counterattack, but in the end, the result was the one Real were most happy about after today's shock duel with Valencia.
