Las Palmas
Betis have a great opportunity to extend their winning streak to four matches as they take on Las Palmas.
After their impressive victory over Real Madrid, Betis should be able to build on their improving form, which has been inconsistent this season. Now sitting in the top six, they are edging closer to a Europa League spot, currently held by Villarreal, with just a six-point gap.
However, their home performances have been hampered by too many draws and a somewhat shaky defense drawing five of their 13 home matches and conceding 15 goals in the process. Despite this, their current momentum suggests steady improvement, especially today against a Las Palmas side that lacks attacking threat.
Las Palmas have struggled defensively on the road, conceding 25 goals in 13 away matches an average of 1.92 per game. Adding to their woes, they will be without three key players: defender McKenna (suspended after a red card), talented winger Moleiro (who scored in his last two matches against Betis, sidelined due to accumulated yellow cards), and captain Rodríguez (out due to illness).
What we say
Betis to Win
Betis have a perfect opportunity to secure three points here, followed by another winnable match against Leganés two fixtures they likely see as a crucial six-point boost before facing tougher challenges against Barcelona and Villarreal.
With this in mind, they will approach the game with focus and determination, aiming to break down a deep-lying Las Palmas defense, which is expected to set up in two compact defensive blocks, likely a back five, while looking to threaten on the counter.
Given Betis’ dominance in possession, they should be able to control the tempo, minimize mistakes, and limit Las Palmas' attacking opportunities. If they execute their game plan effectively, they should secure a much-needed victory, bringing them closer to the top four.
