Real Betis vs Girona Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 15th August 2024

Girona face a daunting first assignment in the LaLiga when they visit the title favourites Real Betis on the opening day of the new campaign.

Both sides are looking to start their campaign on a positive note, and we should witness very dedicated performances from both Real Betis and Girona this coming Thursday.

Real Betis go into their next LaLiga match, scoring a humble average of 1.4 per game in their last ten matches. They scored a mundane 14 times, while conceding 14. That amounts to an average of 1.4 per game, where they kept their opponents from scoring two times.

Girona scored 26 goals, conceded 13 and managed two clean sheets in their previous ten matches.

The latest encounter between these two teams was a belter of a 3-2 match. Are we in for a similar goal-fest on Thursday?

Real Betis vs Girona Prediction

Real Betis Form

Real Betis failed to win any of their last three matches, though they managed to draw against Las Palmas in a 2-2 match, before coming up short against Real Sociedad in a 0-2 defeat. Most recently, they settled for a 0-0 draw against Real Madrid. Real Betis claimed a middle-of-the-road three wins in their previous six matches on home soil in the LaLiga. They also drew one and lost two, as they scored 11 and conceded ten goals.

Girona Form

Girona won twice in their last three matches, but began by losing 0-1 against Villarreal, before beating Valencia 1-3. Another win followed, this time by 7-0 against Granada. Girona won twice, while also recording one draw, and three defeats in their last six away matches in the LaLiga. The scoreline from these matches says eight goals conceded and eight scored.

We trust neither defence to be able to keep their opponent at bay, when Real Betis welcome Girona on Thursday. Goals should be flowing at both ends of the pitch.
