Bayer vs Betis: Bet on a draw

On Matchday 4 of the Europa League group stage, the German side Bayer will take on the Spanish side Betis. The first leg in Spain ended in a 1-1 draw, and the Germans are widely regarded as the favourites to win the next leg. We note, however, that they have been having obvious problems with results of late, while the Sevillians are in fairly good form.

Bayer

An unhappy cycle for Seoane’s team, as it started with a humiliating defeat to Bayern, continues. After a 1-5 home defeat by the Reds, Bayer drew with Betis and broke up with Koln in the derby, although they were 2-0 up at the start of that match. Perhaps the failure against Koln had more of a negative impact on the Pharmacists than a defeat at the hands of Bayern. After the draw against the Goats, Bayer were eliminated from the German Cup, losing to Karlsruhe, going 0-2 at home to Wolfsburg. Before the start of the fourth round, Bayer are leading Group G with seven points. Strategically, a draw can also suit them in the upcoming game.

Betis

Unlike Bayer, Betis have a fairly successful cycle. Yes, on their last tour of La Liga, the team from Sevilla lost 0-3 away to Atletico Madrid, but before that defeat, they beat Alaves, Rayo Vallecano, and Valencia one by one. As a result, Betis sit fifth in the Spanish league table, just one point behind Atletico Madrid. In the Europa League table, Sevilla are second, behind Bayer on goal difference.

Expert Betting Tips

Given the density of Bayer’s matches in the reporting cycle, we doubt that the coaching staff of the German club will be able to bring their charges to their senses. At the very least, Betis have a good chance of not worsening their position in the Europa League group after their fourth-round match. The Sevillians’ away stats this season are not that bad. We wouldn’t be surprised to see them win, but we’re betting on a draw and double chance: Handicap 2 (0.25) for 2.15, X for 3.70, correct score 1:1 for 7.00.
