THE PREDICTION

Under-fire Real Betis manager Manuel Pellegrini managed to ease the pressure on his job with an efficient away victory at Osasuna last weekend. A 2-0 win halted a slide of three consecutive defeats in which the Andalucians conceded 11 goals. In fact, Betis have conceded the most goals in the league and lost the most games in the league. Yet due to the polarizing nature of their performances this season, they remain in contention for a European spot. They come up against a Villarreal side who had a midweek off due to their Europa League opposition Qarabag having too many positive COVID tests to fulfil the fixture. Unai Emery’s side had began to show signs of physical deterioration and fatigue in recent weeks yet have remained unbeaten in all competitions for 14 matches now. That run has involved three 0-0 draws and four games in which they have failed to score more than one goal so they aren’t prolific. Both teams to score, though, remains a good bet considering Betis’ propensity to concede.
