Betis vs Real Madrid Prediction & Betting tips
It promises to be a true football party again on Sunday evening at Benito Villamarin. Real Madrid is starting to get steam again, but also Real Betis shows good football in recent weeks. Goals appear to be on the menu on Sunday evening!
Betis :
Until recently nobody had heard of attacker Loren Moron, but the youth product of Real Betis in the green-white part of Seville is no longer quiet on the street. The young striker listened to his debut two weeks ago with two goals against Villarreal (2-1 win) and did the new growth bonus that a week later even more than his team pays a visit to the troubled Deportivo La Coruna (0-1 profit ) again to shoot victory. This time, he scored on a pass from another debutant, namely left back Junior Firpo.
Not so long ago the fans in the Benito Villamarin screamed for the dismissal of trainer Quique Setien. How different things are now. Setien has had a total of seven youth players debuting this season, and his team is playing attractive football in a way that also delivers results. About the many debutants of this season he had the following to say: ‘People probably thought I had smoked when they saw the basic setup with so many young players. However, I know them very well and know what their qualities are. No one is assured of his place, there is a healthy internal struggle. Ultimately, however, the youth is the future. ‘
With an eighth place, Real Betis has turned out to be a serious candidate for European football. The most important asset in this is the wintry arrival of defender Marc Bartra. With the former FC Barcelona and Borussia Dortmund defender in the ranks, the defense of Real Betis looks so much more solid. Certainly because Zou Feddal can write the rest of the season on his stomach because of injuries, Bartra is immediately one of the most important players in Setien’s team. Also the formation-change (Real Betis recently changed from 4-3-3 to 5-3-2) of course plays along, although both backs in possession serve more as extra midfielders and sometimes even almost as additional attackers.
Real Madrid:
The Real Madrid season is not completely lost yet. The Madrid team won on Wednesday-evening in the first match in the eighth finals of the Champions League with 3-1 of the French football giant Paris Saint-Germain and thus took a big step towards the last eight of the European champions ball. Cristiano Ronaldo did not lose the score with two goals, but for me the real star was Marco Asensio. The playmaker did not come in the line in the 79th minute as a substitute, but then with two formidable assists he decided to decide the game personally in Madrid. Sensational.
Of course the diptych against the French is not yet decided, but this victory will have given Real Madrid confidence. So it is slowly but surely again in the right direction with De Koninklijke, who also gave Real Sociedad 5-2 of cotton last weekend. Cristiano Ronaldo signed in that game for a hat-trick now stands at eleven league goals, as much as in the Champions League. The big difference, however, is that he only needed 55 goal attempts in European mega-ball to score eleven times, while in La Liga he needed no less than 122 attempts to reach the same number. Despite his age – CR7 was allowed to blow out 33 candles a week and a half ago – he still remains the big man at Real Madrid, together with none other than … Lucas Vazquez. Remarkably enough Real Madrid scores in La Liga with Lucas Vazquez on the field much more often than without him. With Lucas Vazquez, Los Blancos scored on average 2.85 times per ninety minutes, without him this average drops to just 1.84 goals. Marco Asensio should always be in the starting line as well, because with him the Madridians average 2.4 times per ninety minutes, without him only 1.99 times. In that sense, you could not call the two late goals of last Wednesday, when both entered in the 79th minute, no coincidence.
