Top match at Estadio Benito Villamarin
When the Andalusians welcome Hansi Flick’s team on Sunday, a spectacular match is guaranteed. In 15 of the last 17 direct encounters between two of the league’s best offenses, three or more goals have been scored. This statistic undoubtedly suggests betting on a high-scoring match between Betis Sevilla and Barcelona.
But even aside from the many goals, neutral viewers can expect an exciting encounter. While Barca regained the top spot in the table from Real Madrid with their fourth consecutive victory last weekend and defended it against Atletico during the week, the “verdiblancos” can also look back on a successful few weeks.
Manuel Pellegrini’s team is now unbeaten in four league games and has moved up to fifth place in the table, which should be enough to qualify directly for the Champions League. Things are also going smoothly for Antony and Co. in the Europa League. After five matchdays, the Andalusians are also unbeaten and in fifth place here.
Hansi Flick’s team therefore faces a challenge. But the 60-year-old German’s team proved that it is up to the task on Tuesday at the latest in the early match of the 19th round. In the still not quite finished Camp Nou, the Catalans celebrated an important 3-1 victory over a strong Atletico side, once again clearly underlining their championship ambitions.
While the prediction for Betis Sevilla vs. Barcelona is a victory for the visitors, it is worth taking a look at the reigning champions’ showpiece – their offense. With 42 goals in 15 games, the Blaugrana have the best attack in the league. No other team comes even close to these figures.
This offensive power means that Hansi Flick’s team often wins its games by more than just one goal. Only three of the league leaders’ twelve wins this season ended with a close result. It therefore seems likely that the Catalans will be able to assert themselves fairly comfortably in Andalusia on Saturday. This makes a handicap bet an attractive option, as it allows the odds for Betis Sevilla vs. Barcelona to be even more appealing.
Betis Sevilla – Barcelona Head-to-head comparison / H2H record
In a direct comparison, FC Barcelona naturally has the upper hand. The favorites have won 22 of the last 30 encounters. Much more exciting than looking at the win statistics is paying attention to the goals scored in this matchup. As mentioned at the beginning, three or more goals have been scored 15 times in the last 17 duels between these two teams.
Betis Sevilla – Barcelona Tip
When Manuel Pellegrini’s team meets last year’s champions on Saturday, one thing above all else can be expected: goals, goals, goals.
In addition to betting on more than three goals at Winamax, it could also be worth betting on an away win for the Catalans. Even though the Andalusians are currently in good form, the visitors are clearly the favorites.
However, if you’re looking for even higher odds on Betis Sevilla vs. Barcelona, you can also place a handicap bet. This allows you to almost triple your stake with relatively little risk.
