Elche vs Real Betis predictions for this Liga Santander clash on Sunday at Manuel Martinez Valero Stadium. Betis will be looking to end their losing streak at the expense of an Elche side who don’t seem to be at their best either. Read on for our free predictions and betting tips.
Elche
Elche are on a bad run of bad results and go into this matchday in the relegation places after two defeats, five draws, and six defeats in 13 games.
Elche have one win, four draws, and one defeat in six home games, scoring six goals and conceding six. They are not an easy team to beat at home.
Real Betis
Betis fans will be hoping that the week of international matches will give their team a rest and help them turn the tide on their last few defeats in a row, one of them against their arch rivals Sevilla.
17 goals conceded in 13 matches make Betis one of the teams that have conceded the most goals in the competition, no surprise given that their defensive weaknesses have been clear for all to see for several seasons now.
Betis are the sixth best away team so far, with three wins, one draw, and two defeats away from home.
Although Elche are not doing well overall, they are very tough to beat at home; in fact, so far only Real Madrid have managed it. This week, they host a Betis team that we think are a better squad, but they are not doing well right now either, which means a draw is probably the most likely result.
