Real Betis extended their undefeated streak with a convincing 2-0 win over Jagiellonia in the Conference League, allowing Betis to now focus entirely on their campaign.
Manuel Pellegrini’s side rank 6th in La Liga, winning 5 out of their last 6 meetings. The only exception is a draw last week against Barcelona, the only team to halt Barcelona since Atlético in the Copa del Rey (4-4).
Betis previously relied on outsourcing their opponents, but Pellegrini has shown flexibility, shifting to a more compact defensive block when necessary. Although the weaknesses include leaving the flanks open, it allows for a system that makes it difficult enough for opponents to hold a draw against better teams.
This is the first time Real Betis have gone over six consecutive matches without a defeat; the last time was in the Quique Sétien era.
Abde Ezzalzouli remains sidelined due to an injury.
Real Betis Predicted line-up vs Villarreal(4-2-3-1): Adrian; Perraud, Natan, Bartra, Ruibal; Altimira, Johnny; Fornals, Lo Celso, Antony; Hernández.
Villarreal do not have any European fixtures to worry about, but their situation in La Liga is just as tense as their opponents’. For their Champions League hopes, they needed to defeat 4th-placed Athletic Club. The game ended in a 0-0 draw. They dominated the match until the 75th minute, but were unable to convert the advantage in the final third.
With a six-point deficit behind Athletic Club, Villarreal will probably have to settle for fifth place. Depending on the allocated spots in La Liga, this may still qualify the team for the Champions League, although that is subject to change.
The club long relied on Alejandro Baena as the playmaker, but missed the penalty box domination of Gerard Moreno, who recently returned to the pitch.
Throughout recent months, Villarreal have struggled to win more than two consecutive games, which explains why they could not overtake Athletic Club.
Papa Gueye is suspended, while Ilias Akhomach, Nicolas Pépé, Raul Albiol, and Tajon Buchanan will be out due to injuries.
Villarreal Predicted line-up vs Real Betis (4-4-2): Junior; Cardona, Costa, Foyth, Kiko; Baena, Parejo, Comesaña, Pino; Barry, Moreno.
Bet hereAlthough few clubs look capable of stopping Real Betis, a draw would not be surprising. Both sides are aware of the importance of this encounter. With less than 10 matches left, squads know that any misstep could deprive them of European football.
With this in mind, we’re likely to see two risk-averse teams, especially with Villarreal’s inconsistency. Both clubs are known for their counter-attacks, leading to both managers cancelling each other’s plans out.
If the tie is a balanced one, Isco has been Betis’ key man in attack, often stepping up in tight games. The support of the fans and the bond with the team was noticeable in the Sevilla Derby, with players celebrating the victory on the pitch.
Isco has been the epicenter of Pellegrini’s creation, with every counter-attack going through his legs. With Villarreal struggling on the defensive end, a mistake by any defender could be enough for Isco to claim the match ball.
