Real Betis form and stats
5-2-3 (win-draw-lost) are the La Liga numbers at home for Real Betis so far this season. The opportunity of a proper winning streak is there for the hosts, with two straight wins here at Estadio Benito Villamarín.
A draw after 90 minutes last time out for Betis, who played 1-1 against Athletic Club (after extra-time, 1-4 on penalties). That match was also played at this venue (Estadio Benito Villamarín). Before that game, the 1-0 home victory against Osasuna.
The Real Betis fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 13 in 10 matches. 12 goals have been conceded.
Barcelona form and stats
As the visiting team in La Liga matches, Barcelona, who have the most scored goals (41) in La Liga, have produced an overall stat of 6-1-3 so far. In general it has been a productive period now for Barcelona as they haven't lost any of their last ten games. A great winning streak in away games for Barcelona as they have managed to win five matches in a row as the visitors. Not since the Cadiz have they travelled home without three points.
It's the second away game in a row for Barcelona, but there's smiles all around after the 5-3 victory versus Granada (after extra-time) (placed 8th) in the Copa Del Rey last time out. Before that, Barcelona secured a home win against Athletic Club with the score 2-1.
An amazing comeback from Barcelona last time out, trailing 0-2 before rallying an inspired fight which eventually led to Jordi Alba scoring the winning goal in the 113rd minute. As you can tell from the result, the match against Granada (after extra-time) was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 8 goals, will the fun continue today? The 5-3 victory against Granada (after extra-time) could easily have been bigger as the victors made a valiant effort at breaking the goal posts, hitting them three times.
The travelling fans enjoy Barcelona's attacking play in away games, having scored 18 goals in 10 league matches away. It's worth mentioning that 9 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. It's not easy to score on Barcelona as they have only conceded 7 goals from these away games.
Head 2 Head
This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; Barcelona - Betis 5-2. Real Betis-Barcelona H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: Betis one win, Barcelona eight wins, one draw. seven of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).Top Goalscorers
