Betis vs Real Madrid Prediction: the Merengues Must Not Lose Points

Prediction for the La Liga Betis vs Real Madrid match, which will take place on March 5th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

In their last three La Liga games, Betis won over Almeria, Valladolid, and Elche. The statistics are alright, but all their opponents were the worst teams. So, don't overestimate the Sevillians. Before the reporting round, Betis occupies the fifth position in the standings with 40 points, two behind Atletico from the UCL. Betis has no closest rivals yet, as Rayo Vallecano and Villarreal are six points away. Betis' home statistics are seventh in the division, +6=2-3, 18:12 goal difference.

In midweek, Real Madrid surprisingly failed to beat Barcelona in the Copa del Rey, although the Catalans lacked important players, especially in the offense. Before that, Real Madrid thrashed Liverpool 5:2 away and couldn't defeat Atletico at home - controversial results, to put it mildly. But given their Copa defeat, there is a feeling that La Liga Real will try to put in more effort. At the moment, Real Madrid is 7 points behind Barcelona, while their away statistics are the second best in the division, +9=0-3, 24:10 goal difference.

Real Madrid failed the Spanish Super Cup, sitting on the verge of relegation from the Copa del Rey and seven points behind Barcelona. Still, there is enough time to catch up with the Catalans in La Liga. There is a meeting in hand, and Barca is experiencing troubles, so they may not beat Valencia this round. La Liga can be the only tournament where the Merengues can fight the Catalans, and there is still the Cup. But after the defeat in Madrid, everything is not so obvious. The Madrid side will win in Seville, but we are not sure the upcoming meeting will be rich in goals.
