Real Betis - Espanyol betting tips and odds

The online bookies marked Real Betis as the favourites, which makes a lot of sense. Still, we wouldn’t put Espanyol winning beyond them – not to mention that draws are a strong possibility in relatively balanced games.

At 4.75 betting odds, an away win would be a huge surprise and we’re positive Espanyol are well aware of it themselves.

Betis supporters are hoping the squad will perform better than they did last round. Despite a home-field advantage and generally favourable betting odds, they lost to Cádiz and a considerable goal 0:2 goal difference.

Espanyol quickly fell behind in their previous La Liga outing and ended up losing the match 1:2. A victory on their end would have been highly surprising considering the 2.20 betting odds with top online bookmakers, though, so the one-goal difference at the end was not as bad as it might seem.

Whether they’re playing home or away, Los Verdiblancos games are rarely as exciting as fans might want them to be. Thheir previous five outings all had less than 3 goals at the 90-minute mark.

Espanyol’s recent track record shows a very concerning amount of concessions – 7 of them in their previous 3 matches, to be exact. While it’s obvious their defence has a lot of problems, Over markets might be a good option for this match.

The hosts have 2 points separating them from European football, and the time to get there is quickly running out. This game is a great chance to work towards that goal, but all the teams are highly motivated at this point in the season.

After 29 games played, Espanyol only managed to put together 27 points. This landed them at the number 19th spot in the standings, which means they’re at risk of relegation. To make matters worse, winning even a single point in Estádio Do Algarve seems quite unlikely at this point.

Though a home win is priced at 1.86, the hosts lost their most recent game against Espanyol. The two teams played earlier in the season, though Real Betis were the visitors and the goal difference was quite narrow.

The hosts may be favourites to win the match, but their lineup is in a somewhat weakened state. Víctor Ruíz, Youssouf Sabaly, Nabil Fekir are all sidelined due to injury, which makes Los Verdiblancos’s position as favourites a bit shakier than it might seem.

At the odds of 1.83, the match will likely end in a Home Win. The probability of success is the most important factor here, and all signs are pointing towards a triumph for Real Betis.
