Our prediction for this Primera Division match:
All eyes will be on Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan when Sevilla and Real Betis take on each other in the La Liga round 27. Julen Lopetegui’s men aim to make amends for a shocking 2-1 loss to Elche, and a win over Real Betis will see them retain their spot in top four. As things stand now, Aleix Vidal should be the only absentee in the home team.
Los Beticos, on the other hand, showed character in their last league match, with the team coming from two goals behind to beat Deportivo Alaves 3-2. Real Betis are eyeing their fifth consecutive win in the Spanish top flight, and given their attacking potential, both teams to score betting option should be considered. Both Joaquin and Iglesias, who impressed in the 3-2 win over Alaves, are pushing for a start, while Bartra and Camarasa are likely to miss the game with injuries.
