Celta de Vigo - Real Betis predictions

Real Betis will give Celta de Vigo a run for their money and there is no doubt about it. However, at 2.30 odds on home win in this match, we still recommend backing the hosts.

The 3.30 away win betting odds indicate that Real Betis are the underdogs of this matchup. The difference is not huge, though, so both a victory for the visitors and are draw are still on the table.

Celta lost their last La Liga outing Valencia. It might have been a minimum defeat but the hosts never actually got a chance to get anything positive from this trip having fallen behind in the first 45 minutes.

Los Verdiblancos are here on the back of a tie with Athletic Bilbao in the last round. Despite the 2:2 score in a home game, they performed above expectations by ending the first half ahead in a game which was heavily skewed against them.

Betis have a notoriously bad track record when it comes to defending their posts. Though their recent streak of 5 conceded goals over 3 home games does not directly apply here, it’s still bad news.

The form Team from Vigo displayed so far was quite worrying for their supporters, but at least they managed to stay out of the relegation zone. They’ll need to fight hard to move up on the table, and this matchup does not really favour them.

With a series of mixed results in the first half of this La Liga season, Betis have their eyes set on moving up to a Europa League qualifying spot. Celta De Vigo are not about to make it easy for them, though.

These two teams already clashed multiple times this season, and neither managed to come out on top in any of those games. Most bookmakers see The Sky Blues as the favourites, though, so they’ll want to use the extra drive of being the hosts to finally earn a conclusive result.

Betis will have an even more difficult time of this match than what was expected. They will be missing at least a few players due to injury - Bellerín, Pablo Fornals, Chimy Ávila will all be unable to perform.

This match is a great chance to go for a safe Both Teams to Score bet. There are some risks involved, of course, but the 1 odds offered by 1xbet make the risk worth taking.
