Real Betis suffered their first defeat of the Europa League campaign last week, losing 0–2 at home to PAOK. Despite that setback, Manuel Pellegrini’s side remain inside the top 8, though their position is far from secure. With several teams close behind, a victory here would be the safest way to guarantee direct qualification. Betis’ recent home form is encouraging, having won four of their last five home matches in all competitions. In Europe, they drew 2–2 with Nottingham Forest at home before recording convincing victories over Lyon and another Dutch opponent, FC Utrecht.
Prediction: Both Teams to Score – Yes
BTTS – Yes looks like the most balanced and logical pick. Betis are strong at home and usually find the net, but Feyenoord’s need to win forces them into a more aggressive approach that increases their scoring chances.
Betis Comfortable Going Forward at Home
At the Benito Villamarín, Betis rarely struggle to create chances. They play with confidence, width, and technical quality, and even against well-organised opponents they usually manage to score. Defensive solidity, however, is not always guaranteed, especially when facing teams that attack with urgency.
Feyenoord Forced to Take Risks
With elimination looming, Feyenoord cannot afford a cautious approach. They will need to push forward and commit numbers, particularly if the match remains level. That attacking intent should increase their chances of scoring, even if it also leaves them vulnerable defensively.
