Real Betis vs Girona Predictions

• Both teams have scored in each of the last five meetings between these sides.
• Real Betis have seen both teams score in five of their last six home La Liga matches.
• Girona have conceded in seven of their last eight league away days.

Girona hope for repeat of last term

Girona finished an excellent third in La Liga last season and kick their new season off with a trip to Real Betis on Thursday, and a high-scoring game could be on the cards.

The visitors have lost some key figures over the summer, with Artem Dovbyk, Aleix Garcia, and Savinho among the hardest-hitting, but they should have more than enough attacking quality remaining to trouble Real Betis’ defence.

Expect goals in Seville

The hosts, who finished seventh last term, have kept just two clean sheets in their last 13 La Liga matches and have seen both teams score in five of their last six at home.

Girona have conceded in seven of their last eight league away games, and with there being goals at both ends in each of the last five meetings between these sides, backing both teams to score appeals.

These two both played out 2-2 draws in May last term and the two fixtures last season saw Girona score four and Real Betis score three, so a 2-2 opener could be a big-priced winner.
