Real Betis
This game is very important for both teams involved at each end of the table. For the home team, they are looking for a win to help them get out of the relegation zone where they currently sit on 9 points. However, for Real Betis it is all about breaking back into the top 4 and into those Champions league spots. Something that a win in this game would help massively. Valencia go into this trying to bounce back from a 4-0 loss to league leaders Real Madrid. Whereas Betis go into this trying to extend their win streak to 4 games in all competitions. Our advanced algorithm has predicted a 2-1 win to Real Betis.

Valencia go into this game having seen the last win between these 2 teams and this should give them a higher level of confidence as they have the more recent taste of victory in this fixture especially as that last win was like the game on home soil. Real Betis do go into this game with the better record in the last 5 meetings between the 2 teams only losing 1 of the last 5 while drawing 2 and winning 2. Real Betis have also seen a victory here so they should know it is possible that they do walk away with all 3 points.
Valencia Last 5 Matches: Girona 2-1 Valencia La Liga (A) Deportivo Alaves 0-0 Valencia La Liga (A) Valencia 0-2 Villarreal La Liga (H) UD Maracena 0-5 Valencia Copa De Rey (A) Real Madrid 4-0 Valencia La Liga (A)
These last 5 games haven’t been great for Valencia as they have lost 3 out of the last 5 games and the only win came in the cup where they faced a team made from players 19 or under. Unfortunately, this didn’t help them bounce back as they lose their next game 4-0. In the last 5 games they have conceded 9 and only scored 1 in their last 4 La Liga games. They have really struggled to score and keep goals from going in this season, something they will be hoping changes this game.

Real Betis have had a mixed bag of form recently with the first 2 games in the last 5 not being ideal especially for a team that would be looking to progress in the Europa League and push for the top 4 in Spain. However, in the last 3 games they have been absolutely perfect winning games comfortably. In the last 5 games they conceded just 3 goals while scoring 12 goals, and while 7 came against a weaker team, they have still shown they are very capable of scoring goals this season and they will be looking to keep that going and will want to put a few past Valencia to improve their goal difference.
Our advanced algorithm looks over and analyses over 200 data points and has given a 53.30% chance of Real Betis winning this game. The model factor that allows this decision is the form of the teams, players available and tactical matchups.
Football Park’s Best Bet: Real Betis to win @ 2.25 odds. Our team of in-house tipsters have predicted that Real Betis win this fixture based on current form and head-to-head record to justify this choice.
Agirrezabala (Valencia): The 24-year-old goalkeeper is the player to watch for Valencia, the person who they will really need to step up in this game if they have a hope of walking away with a result that they want. This season he has already had to make 40 saves averaging 3.64 saves per 90. One of the main things that they have been able to rely on him for is high claims from crosses having the most in La Liga along with the fact he is yet to make an error leading to a goal. He will be the man to watch and the person who will be vital in keeping Valencia in the game.
Antony (Real Betis): The Brazilian has really managed to find himself out in Spain and this is proved by his performances with 5 goal contributions this season and being Real Betis joint top goal scorer this season in the league. The winger has been able to cause problems for many defences in Spain and with the defensive issues that Valencia have had he will be hoping to cause more pain and add to his tally this season with a few more goal contributions helping his team back towards the top 4 spots.
