Competition: La Liga
Market: Real Betis win
Odds: 7/11 @ 888sport
Desperate to claim a much-needed boost on Sunday afternoon, Real Betis will welcome Cadiz to the Estadio Benito Villamarín.
Starting with the hosts, suffering late heartbreak away at Atletico Madrid last weekend as they slumped to a 1-0 defeat in the capital, Real Betis will be desperate to claim a crucial boost on Sunday afternoon. However, while Los Verdiblancos might have shown some extended issues prior to the international break, Manuel Pellegrini’s men should be smelling a golden chance here. Glad to make a return to the Estadio Benito Villamarín this weekend, the former West Ham boss has seen his side collect seven points from their last three La Liga contests on home soil. Heading into the fortnight interval with a deserved 1-0 win against Mallorca in Seville, Betis should also be excited by a stellar record against Sunday’s guests. It should be highlighted, Real Betis are unbeaten in each of their last six meetings against the Yellow Submarine.
As for the visitors, while Cadiz might have just about clung to their La Liga status last season, Sergio Gonzalez’s side find themselves at the heart of another relegation scrap. Marking their return from the international break with a downbeat display on home soil as they suffered a 2-0 loss at the hands of Sevilla, the Andalusia-based outfit now hold just a one point buffer from slipping into the drop zone. Without a win from any of their last four top-flight contests, the former Valladolid boss will know that his side faces another stern test on Sunday afternoon. Without a victory against Real Betis from their last six attempts, it should also be noted that Cadiz have gained a reputation for their extended issues on the road. On a run that is highlighted by a 4-1 hammering against Athletic Bilbao, Gonzalez’s men have failed to claim an away win since back on January 6th.
Bet: Real Betis 7/11 to beat Cadiz in Sunday’s La Liga showdown @ 888sport
