This is the first Sevilla derby to be played this season. Later these teams will play against each other in the Copa del Rey. Real Betis play better in away games, except that they have lost to Las Palmas in the last match. But before that they’ve won four times in away games. And they are not so good at home with just one win and four defeats.
Sevilla can be seen as favourites in this derby and all the bookmakers think so. We can bet on Sevilla’s win at 1.95, but it’s too risky. It’s derby after all. So I suggest a more neutral bet: Sevilla to score over 1.5 goals at 1.76. If Betis play an open game, Sevilla players will take advantage of that. And one more bet on corners, although I don’t do it too often – both of these teams have a lot of corners each game. So I’ll bet on corners over 4,5 in the first half at 1.95.
