Real Betis vs Real Sociedad Prediction

Real Betis Form

Real Betis have been a little inconsistent recently, as they beat Elche by 2-1. Following that up proved too difficult, as they lost 3-1 against Barcelona, before achieving a 2-1 win against Levante. Real Betis claimed three wins in their last six matches at home in the LaLiga, while also drawing three but lost none. They scored nine and conceded four goals.

Real Sociedad Form

Real Sociedad have been a tad mediocre in their last three matches where a win has failed to come their way. Against Girona, they gained a 1-1 draw, before coming up short against Valencia, who ran out 3-4 winners. Lately, they finished even in a 1-1 draw with Espanyol. Real Sociedad came through their last six away games in the LaLiga without a single win. Of those six matches, they drew three and lost three in which, they were outscored by 12 goals to eight.

Real Betis and Real Sociedad are both scoring more or less for fun right now, and a very entertaining game should be on the menu. More often than not, their matches against each other turn out high scoring affairs.
