Real Betis

WDLDDL

Since a loss in their previous game against Barcelona in La Liga action, Real Betis and their travelling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one.

In that match, Real Betis managed 42% possession and 15 shots at goal with 5 on target. The only player on the scoresheet for Real Betis was Marc Bartra (79'). FC Barcelona had 11 attempts on goal with 5 of them on target. Ansu Fati (76') and Jordi Alba (94') scored for Barcelona.

It is worth noting that Real Betis have been starved of goals in their past 6 clashes, netting the unsatisfactory return of just 4. In those fixtures, Béticos have also seen the overall goal aggregate of opposing teams equal 5. Previous results aside, it remains to be seen if that trend might be maintained here in this match.

Going into this game, the form guide shows that Real Betis:

• are unbeaten in their previous 4 away league matches.
• are without a win away from home in their last 2 league games.

👥 Head to head

A review of their past head to head clashes stretching back to 23/11/2019 shows that Valencia have won 1 of these games and Real Betis 3, with the tally of drawn results being 2.

🗞️ Team News: Valencia

The Valencia manager José Bordalás will be thankful to have no fitness concerns whatsoever before this clash owing to a completely injury-free squad available to choose from.

We are thinking that Los Che will probably employ a 5-3-2 system for this one with Giorgi Mamardashvili, Thierry Correia, Dimitri Foulquier, Mouctar Diakhaby, Omar Alderete, Jesus Vazquez, Carlos Soler, Uros Racic, Ilaix Moriba, Goncalo Guedes and Hugo Duro.

ℹ️ Team News: Real Betis

In an otherwise healthy group of players, there is only the sole fitness issue for the Real Betis manager Manuel Pellegrini to be concerned about. Martín Montoya (Achilles tendon problems) won’t be playing here.

We reckon that Béticos seem most likely to play in a 4-2-3-1 system, settling for Rui Silva, Youssouf Sabaly, German Pezzella, Marc Bartra, Juan Miranda, Guido Rodriguez, William Carvalho, Sergio Canales, Nabil Fekir, Cristian Tello and Willian Jose.

💭 Prediction

We feel that Valencia could find themselves up against it to breach the defence of this Real Betis side who we think might score at least once to put them ahead.

Therefore, we predict a good battle with a 0-1 win for Real Betis at full-time.

Hoping for a good game.
