Competition: La Liga
Market: Sevilla to beat Real Betis
Odds:
La Liga returns this weekend for yet another enthralling round of games that will keep football fans on the edge of their seats. Barcelona still lead at the top by some distance, but those bellow them are all locked in heated battles, be it for a Champions League place or survival. With this in mind, Sevilla host Real Betis on Saturday.
Sevilla have been very inconsistent this season and they are looking to embark upon a run of form that will see them move into a Champions League place for next season. After 17 matches they have nine wins, two draws and six defeats, while they have scored 20 goals and conceded 22 times which is surprising considering they are usually such a defensively orientated side. In their last five contests they have two wins, but their last three games have yielded just a single point to their total of 29, meaning they are two behind Real Madrid in fourth having played one more game than their counterparts.
Real Betis on the other hand are looking to put as much space between themselves and the relegation zone as possible with another win on Saturday. After 17 games they have six wins, three draws and eight defeats, while they have scored 25 times and conceded 31 goals. The 21 points they have accumulated means they are six clear of the relegation zone, but Betis will be well aware of the fact that a poor run of form can quickly see this advantage wiped out. With all of this in mind, we are backing Sevilla with odds of 9/20 from Bet365.
