Real Betis vs Barcelona Predictions

• Both teams have scored in two of Real Betis’ last three home La Liga contests
• Both teams have scored in seven of Barcelona’s last eight La Liga away games with over 2.5 goals in five
• Robert Lewandowski has scored one goal in all four of Barca’s games against Real Betis since his arrival in 2022

Undefeated home and away sides meet in Seville

On Sunday, Real Betis put their undefeated home La Liga record on the line against a Barcelona side that has yet to taste defeat on the road in 2023-24.

Manuel Pellegrini’s side have won six and draw four of their 10 league games at the Benito Villamarin, which includes recent 1-1 draws with title contenders Real Madrid and Girona.

Los Verdiblancos should provide a stern test for Xavi’s Barca, particularly in the wake of their 4-1 Super Cup humiliation at the hands of Real.

Bank on Barca’s deadly marksman to have his say

The champions do have a good record against Betis, however, having won nine of the last 10 league meetings including each of the last five in Seville.

And they will have deadly marksman Robert Lewandowski available to haunt the hosts once more. The Pole has struck in each of his four appearances against Betis since his move to the Catalan city in 2022.

So it is probably worth siding with Barca to come out on top in the end, but both teams should score with at least three goals in the game based on both clubs’ recent records. There have been goals at both ends in seven of the champions’ last eight away La Liga games and two of the last three Betis home contests.
