Sevilla will be looking to continue their recent resurgence as they travel to Real Betis for a La Liga fixture on Sunday. While Sevilla showed some quality lately, Betis are also looking sharp and both teams may be set to cancel each other out.
Real Betis are coming off a 2-1 victory at Valencia in their previous La Liga fixture. A goal in each half from Ayoze Perez was enough to earn them the win despite a second half effort from Los Che.
That was the second straight 2-1 victory for Real Betis, who also edged out Celta Vigo last time out. Manuel Pellegrini’s men remain in the hunt for a European finish as they sit seventh on the standings, three points off the top six.
Although things appear smooth for Real Betis, they have been slightly erratic at home in recent times. They have claimed four wins and played out as many draws in their last 10 La Liga home matches while also failing to keep a clean sheet in the last three in that run.
Sevilla are also coming off a win as they triumphed 2-1 over Mallorca last time out in La Liga. They came to life after the break with goals from Youssef En-Nesyri and Isaac Romero earning them the win.
The Andalusians are a long way away from relegation troubles having shown plenty of improvement in the second half of the season. They are up to 12th on the standings, 12 points above the bottom three and head into Sunday’s clash with three straight wins.
Sevilla are also showing some quality on their travels, losing just once in their last six matches. They have claimed three wins in that run while the other two have ended in draws.
