Betis vs Villarreal Prediction & Betting Tips (10 March)

Betis Sevilla aims to keep this 6th and final qualifying place for the next European campaign...The Andalusian club only has a slim lead of 2 points over Real Sociedad and must therefore record a victory ahead of Villarreal to keep the cap. Manuel Pellegrini's team, after an unbeaten run of 5 games, 3 wins and 2 draws, fell in the capital against Atlético Madrid 2-1 last weekend during the 27th day. Isco's teammates 6 goals made a strong impression in their last home match against the formidable Bilbao team, winning quite comfortably with a score of 3 goals to 1.

Villarreal also saw its run of 7 matches without defeat 3 wins and 4 draws ended at the Vélodrome against Marseille 4-0 during their 1/8th final first leg of the Europa League. Largely dominated in all areas of the game, the Spanish team jeopardized its chances of qualifying for the quarters! Marcélino's return was a damp squib. The Spanish technician will have to remobilize his troops so that they do not keep in mind this rout which could impact the rest of his career in the championship. In this Liga, Sorloth's teammates 12 goals remain on 2 brilliant victories on the field of Real Sociedad 1-3 and in front of Granada 5-1 on March 3. But this trip to a candidate for Europe is perilous for the yellow “submarine”!

The Andalusians' infirmary is bursting at the seams. No less than seven players could forfeit this clash with, in this case, the crack Isco (6 goals, 3 assists), the French world champion Fékir (often physically hampered in recent months), the defenders Bartra (OUT until 'to December) and Abner Vinicius (often established as left back), Sergi Altimira (rotation), winter recruit and former Marseillais, Bakambu (injured calf) and the important Ruibal (2 pawns, 1 assist this season in La Liga). To make matters worse, Argentinian world champion Pezzella will be suspended for an accumulation of yellow cards. Fortunately, Willian José (7 goals, 3 assists in La Liga), the returnee from injury, Ayoze Perez (4 goals) and the recruits, Fornals (ex-West-Ham) and Avila (ex-Osasuna) will probably be present this evening to defend the green and white jersey. Opposite, Villarreal will be without the full-backs Foyth (crucial) and Pedraza (both injured), the emerging star Pino (rehabilitation of his cruciate ligament rupture), the midfielder Denis Suarez (rotation) or even Terrats (rupture).

of the meniscus). Also note the strong uncertainty around the participation of Raul Albiol (glitch) who is not sure of putting on the combat outfit for this trip to Benito Villamarin. On the other hand, the important Jorge Cuenca (2 goals in 20 appearances in the league) is back from suspension while the center forwards Sörloth (12 goals, 4 assists) and Gerard Moreno (10 goals, 2 goals in La Liga) will be very present unless there is a last minute injury.
