In midweek, Espanyol dropped out of the Copa del Rey, losing to Athletic (0:1). But after five points in the three rounds, their La Liga tournament placing has improved. Recall that the Parakeets sealed a draw with Barcelona and Girona and narrowly beat Getafe 2:1. So Espanyol climbed up to 14th place in the standings with 17 points, one point ahead of Cadiz and the relegation zone. Espanyol's home statistics are 18th in the division, +1=3-4, 10:15 goal difference.
Betis
Betis had a protracted and ultimately disappointing cup match against Osasuna. They were leading from the 62nd minute, close to victory, but conceded by Garcia in the first added minute. In extra time, Betis regained the lead, but three minutes later missed and lost a penalty shootout to drop out of the Copa del Rey. Betis is the reigning Copa owner, so that defeat was highly frustrating. In La Liga, Betis has a much better situation than Espanyol. Before the 18th round, Betis is sixth, behind Atletico from the UCL, based on secondary indicators. Betis' away statistics are eighth in the division, +3=2-3, 7:8 goal difference. Note that in the away matches, they average fewer than two goals per game.
Expert Betting Tips
Betis comes to Catalonia after a tough and failed cup match. At the same time, Espanyol, after the break, has yet to lose a single La Liga match, not even to Barcelona. In addition, because of the tournament position, the Parakeets are forced not to lose but to win and break away from the relegation zone. In the case of a defeat, they might fall back into the relegation zone. As for the total, we do not expect a productive match. Betis seldom reaches a total over (2.5) on the road.
