Our prediction for this Primera Division match:
After failing to create a descent opportunity to score in a 1-0 loss to Barcelona, Huesca will be looking to return to winning ways in La Liga when they take on Real Betis on Matchday 18. The newcomers are fighting hard to survive in Primera Division, and we are positive that they will leave their hearts on the field in Monday’s clash. Experienced Japan international Shinji Okazaki is widely expected to return to the starting XI.
Los Beticos, on the other hand, were a better side in a 1-1 draw with Sevilla, and, no doubt, they are high on confidence ahead of the trip to Huesca. Since key midfielder Sergio Canales has overcome his injury, we are tempted to put our money on the visitors. Even though several Betis footballers have been tested positive for coronavirus, away win should be considered as Huesca failed to impress in the defeat to Barca.
