Our football match prediction:
Granada and Real Betis take on each other at Estadio Nuevo Los Carmenes in the Andalusian derby. El Grana are desperate to secure yet another top flight survival and the fact that they defeated Las Palmas in their last home fixture is giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of the visit of Real Betis. Lucas Alcaraz’s men are desperate to escape the relegation zone and we predict that they will fight tooth and nail in Friday’s football match against los Beticos. Victor Sanchez’s troops played out a goalless draw with Valencia at the weekend, but it has to be noted that they missed a number of clear-cut chances to break the deadlock. Real Betis managed to keep three clean sheets in previous five league fixtures and they are likely to rely on their rock-solid defence in Friday’s clash against the fellow Andalusian outfit. Taking everything into account, under 2.5 goals bet should be considered.
