Real Betis vs Elche Prediction

Real Betis Form

Real Betis go into their upcoming match unbeaten in their previous three matches, which started off with a 1-1 draw against Real Madrid. They went on to beat Real Oviedo 3-0, before sharing the spoils with Real Sociedad in a 2-2 draw. Real Betis just have a single home win to show from their efforts in the past six LaLiga matches at the Estadio de La Cartuja. They also drew five and lost zero of these six encounters, in which they scored eight and conceded five goals.

Most people had Real Betis down among favourites for relegation, but they have surpassed all expectations. With the season coming to an end, they look destined for another season in the LaLiga.

Elche Form

In has been a bit of everything for Elche in their previous three matches, as they first beat Real Oviedo by 1-2. This was followed by a disappointing 3-1 defeat against Celta Vigo, before an encounter with Deportivo Alaves produced a 1-1 draw. Elche managed to win just once in their past six away games in the LaLiga. On top of winning once they also drew zero as well as losing five, while scoring 13 time and letting in six.

Many people had Elche down as candidates for the drop before the season, but rescue is still within reach, as the season nears its end.

They usually throw caution to the wind, when clashing with each other, and with both Real Betis and Elche scoring freely over the past weeks, we expect a highly entertaining match.

Real Betis scored 28 goals and conceded 16 in their last 18 games against teams from the bottom half of the LaLiga table. They collected 33 points and eight victories. Elche fought their way to two wins and nine points from their last 11 games against teams inside the top six. They were on target 15 times in these matches, but also let in 25 goals. Real Betis are looking at a record of 13 wins, 15 draws and seven defeats in the LaLiga this season. Elche are looking at nine wins, 12 draws and 14 defeats in the LaLiga.
