Sevilla vs Real Betis Prediction: Expect a Draw?

The 35th round of the Spanish championship will end with the Seville derby in which Sevilla will be the home team. The bookmakers are siding with the Red and Whites, but it is worth remembering that Sevilla had a very tough midweek game against Juventus, which was won only in extra time. The encounter against the Italians took a lot of physical and emotional energy, which the home side could be lacking in the upcoming game.

Sevilla

Sevilla still has a chance of finishing in seventh place, where Girona still sit, but they are unlikely to go any higher. The seventh-place position in the Conference League is not the level of a Europa League finalist. Moreover, if the Spaniards, who knocked out MU and Juventus from the European Cup, can win the tournament, they will represent Spain in the Champions League next season. It's evident that La Liga has become secondary for Sevilla, but let's not forget that this match is crucial for Sevilla because it's a derby, after all. Sevilla's home record is 13th in the division, +7=4-6, 23:23 goal difference.

Real Betis

After a series of setbacks, Betis achieved two victories in the last two games, over Athletic in the away fixture and Rayo Vallecano in the home fixture. Such results have allowed Betis to remain in sixth place, and the visitors are unlikely to fall any lower. Overall, there is still a chance of climbing into the top 4, but to do so, they need to finish the season very strongly, including, most likely, beating Sevilla away, their most implacable foe. Betis' away statistics are sixth in the division, +7=3-7, 18:22 goal difference.

Expert Betting Tips

If Sevilla had not had a midweek game and an emotional end to the encounter with Juventus, we would have picked the future hosts in this pairing. However, the Sevillians spent a lot of energy overcoming the Turin side. Obviously, for the home side, the most crucial match of the season will be the Europa League final against Roma, and not at all the upcoming derby against Betis. It is undesirable to lose the game against the opponents, but in this situation, it is not so crucial for the Red Whites from the tournament point of view. We think a draw will be enough for the home team and the visitors, who are not yet in danger of losing sixth place.
