Real Betis vs Barcelona Prediction and Match Preview

Estadio Benito Villamarin will witness one of the interesting clash on Sunday with their hosts Real Betis welcoming the Barcelona side in the 21^st Round of Laliga.

• Barcelona will enter this match following a demotivating defeat against their arch-rivals Real Madrid in the Spanish Super Cup final.
• Real Betis sealed a 1-0 win over Granada in their latest match to end a six-match winless streak.
• Three of the last five league matches of Barcelona saw the landing of over 2.5 goals tip.

The defending champions Barcelona have quite not been able to deliver the same display like last season so far this time. They have often been recording some winless outcomes which pushes them well clear from the top spot. Moving on, Barcelona had a four-match winning streak before losing against Real Madrid in their latest match. They will be hoping to regain the lost momentum and they will have a great chance to start the run on Sunday.

Real Betis had a five-game winless run in the league before sealing a victory over Granada in their previous Laliga match. They were winless in three of the past four home outings too. It is worth mentioning that two of the three winless matches were draws. Knowing that Barcelona has not lost a single game on the road so far this campaign, we expect a competitive clash between these two on Sunday.

Recent Meetings

• Barcelona can rely on the recent tradition since they follow a five-match unbeaten streak against Betis.
• At this venue, Barcelona has not conceded a defeat against Betis in the past decade.
• Their head-to-head clashes at this stadium have often been a goal-fest, with goals coming from both ends.

Real Betis vs Barcelona Prediction

Real Betis lost just once at home in the past 10 matches. Such a form would have helped us to back a bet in favor of them, but here we have an in-form Barcelona side. Blaugrana’s impressive away form in the league, with an exceptional h2h form against Betis at this stadium, inclines us to suggest an away win as the main betting pick for this match.

Another thing to be noted is that the Betis side has netted goals in their past 12 home matches in a row. Since their h2h clashes at this venue are known for high-scoring nail-biters, our second pick will be the combined tip of over 2.5 goals and both teams to score option.
