Real Valladolid are welcoming Real Betis for another important game after their 1-3 result against 13th-placed SD Eibar.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

Real Valladolid are staying put; they can neither be promoted or relegated this season and are fighting only for positions. For Betis most of the excitement is over as they will neither be promoted or relegated this season.

Real Valladolid form and stats

Overall La Liga stats at home this season for Real Valladolid are 4-10-4 (wins-draw-losses). With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Valladolid to get some points in this home game.

Valladolid faced defeat in their previous match, away at SD Eibar (1-3). Before that game, the home loss against Barcelona with the scoreline 0-1.

Some supporters pointed their nail-bitten fingers at Sergi Guardiola for missing a penalty kick versus SD Eibar in the 71st minute. It's possible that a goal in that situation would have changed the outcome.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Valladolid have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found ten matches with the results: Won four, drawn four and lost two.

The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Valladolid here at Estadio Municipal José Zorrilla in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (16 from 18 games). From these home matches, Real Valladolid have conceded only 15 goals.

Real Betis form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Real Betis so far with only 10 points returning home. The records show 1-7-10 (win-draw-lose). Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in eleven away games in a row.

The manager A. Trujillo Oramas was unhappy after their last game, a La Liga match played at their home ground Estadio Benito Villamarín. Real Betis suffered a 1-2 loss to Deportivo Alavés (placed 16th). A 0-1 defeat away at Atlético Madrid before that.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Real Betis playing away and similar expectations, we found 13 relevant matches. Results were three Betis wins, six draws and four defeats.

The visitors have scored 14 goals from 18 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. In the opposite end, Betis have conceded 31 goals in their away games.
