Villarreal-Betis is a match from the first day of La Liga and is played on Sunday at 7:30 pm: likely lineups, predictions, TV and streaming.
The preseason for Setien’s Villarreal has not been exciting: far from it. The yellows of Spain in their last outing lost to Newcastle and in important challenges in this first phase of preparation they have never won. A sign, no doubt, to be kept in mind for this league start against Betis, a team always difficult to face.
Yes, it’s true, even Pellegrini’s didn’t perform that well. The Andalusians lost to Real Sociedad in what was their last engagement before the official start of the season, so it’s not as if they come to this confrontation so serene. In short, two teams that have little to salvage and are looking for the first points in this Spanish league that never as this year, especially going to see the teams fighting for something important, is all to be discovered. What is certain is, that from this match, some sure emotions will come. Last season, the match played at the home of Villarreal, ended in a draw. We have a strong feeling that it could end that way in this case as well. Two teams that no doubt could be content, given the caliber of the opponent, to start their season with a point. Let’s say it could really fit.
Pellegrini, Betis coach
The prediction
A match of at least one goal per team and a match that, at the end of the ninety minutes, could even give a point per team. Yes, Villarreal and Betis could even cancel each other out in this match: a draw that would certainly make both coaches happy, after a difficult preseason to decipher, as they still have a lot to work on.
