Real Betis vs Alaves
Spain – LaLiga
Date: Tuesday, 18 January 2022
Kick-off at 19:00 UK/ 20:00 CET
Venue: Estadio Benito Villamarí.
Betis have surprisingly been one of the best teams in the competition this season, and they are rightfully in possession of the third spot.
However, the path forward is not going to be easy for them. Defending champions Atleti and the rejuvenated Barca are giving them a tough chase, and the team will have to keep winning, to keep these contenders at bay.
Meanwhile, Alaves have been one of the worst in the La Liga in 2021-22, and are placed in the relegation zone at the moment. They are on a long winless run, and they have had one of the worst offenses in the entire league.
Going on, they have been a total failure on the road lately, and to make matters worse, they have an inferior h2h record against this foe as well.
Taking into account these observations, expect a win for Betis this Tuesday at the Estadio Benito Villamarí.
Betis were held to a 1-1 draw the last match-day on the road by Rayo Vallecano. They were also unbeaten in nine of their past twelve games, and they have lost just twice at home since August. One of these two defeats had come against the second-placed Sevilla.
On the other hand, Alaves were held to a 0-0 draw at home the past game week by Bilbao. They are also on a seven-game winless streak, and they have won just thrice on the road since January of 2021.
One of these wins had come against a team from the lower division, while the other two had come against the 19th placed Cadiz, and the 16th placed Elche.
Considering these observations, expect a win for Betis this Tuesday.
