Match Analysis

Valencia's recent performances have been far from encouraging, with two losses and a draw in their last three matches. They suffered a heavy 0-4 defeat to Real Madrid and a 0-2 loss to Villarreal before managing a goalless draw against Alaves. Despite these setbacks, Valencia's average goals scored in the last five games stands at 1.4, though they have only managed one clean sheet in that period. Betis, on the other hand, have shown mixed form but with a slight positive tilt. They secured a convincing 3-0 victory over Mallorca, showcasing their attacking prowess, but faced a 0-2 defeat against a strong Atletico Madrid side. A 2-2 draw with Villarreal indicates their resilience and ability to score, with an average of 1.6 goals scored in their last five outings. Betis also boasts two clean sheets during this span, indicating a relatively solid defensive setup.

Final Prediction

Betis holds a clear advantage heading into this match, backed by stronger recent performances and a higher league standing. Their ability to score consistently, combined with Valencia's struggles, particularly in defense, gives Betis the upper hand. A key factor to watch will be Betis's attacking efficiency, which could prove decisive in breaking down Valencia's defense.
