Football – Spain – La Liga Betting Tips

Real Betis fell to a fourth defeat in six matches last weekend when they fulfilled expectations by losing away at Real Madrid, but the scoreline was only 2-1 to the hosts in the end. However, Real Betis return to their Estadio Benito Villamarín in Seville for Saturday’s bottom half clash in la Liga against rock-bottom Osasuna.

Real Betis will be keen therefore to put all three points in the bag in order to pull away from the bottom three, and as they already hold a nine-point lead over third from bottom club Granada, a win here this evening would virtually guarantee their safety in the Spanish top flight.

Real Betis hold a home record of 4-6-4 16/18 overall and come into this fixture on the back of five matches without a win on home turf. However, they’ve performed well against the teams around them in the division, losing just once in seven encounters at home in these situations.

Visitors Osasuna grabbed a point in Monday night’s 1-1 draw at home with Eibar and they still remain the only side in La Liga yet to register a home win this season. Not that their away record is much better mind you, as they possess stats of 1-3-9 14/34 on their travels to date in the Spanish top flight.

Unsurprisingly, Osasuna find themselves bottom of the league with just 11 points to their name and are 14 points adrift of fourth from bottom Leganes, heading into this weekend’s action. The visitors have lost their last four matches away from home on the trot with defeats at Real Sociedad, Celta Vigo, Espanyol and Las Palmas.

In addition, Osasuna have failed to keep a single clean sheet and have conceded 2 goals or more on no fewer than 10 occasions from their 13 away matches so far.
