Our prediction for this Primera Division match:
Estadio Benito Villamarin will host Friday’s football game between Real Betis and Levante. Los Beticos aim to make amends to 1-0 their bitter local rivals Sevilla, and a win over Levante will see them stay in the Europa League berth. Both Dani Martin and Victor Camarasa are sidelined with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the home team. Los Levantinos, on the other hand, did well to beat Valencia in the local derby, with the team quickly bouncing back from a 1-0 loss to Real Sociedad.
Considering that Levante have been producing fine displays on the road this season, we predict that they are going to grab something from the Estadio Benito Villamarin clash. All Sergio Postigo, Nemanja Radoja, Gonzalo Melero, and Jose Campana are all likely to miss the game with injuries. Over 2.5 goals have been netted in each of their last five meetings in Primera Division.
