Team Form and Analysis:
Levante enters this match in a difficult run of form, sitting second to last in the table with zero points from their first three matches. The reigning Segunda Division champions have found the transition to the top flight to be a tough one, with losses to Alavés, Barcelona, and Elche. They have been porous defensively, conceding seven goals in three games, and will need a much-improved performance to get their first points of the season.
Real Betis, meanwhile, has had a mixed start to the season. The visitors have picked up five points from their first four matches, with a win, two draws, and a loss. Their most recent result was a disappointing 2-1 home defeat to Athletic Bilbao, and they will be eager to bounce back with a strong performance on the road. Despite their inconsistencies, Real Betis has shown resilience on their travels, remaining unbeaten in their two away fixtures so far.
Head-to-Head:
The historical head-to-head record between these two clubs is in favor of Real Betis, who have won 25 of their 48 previous meetings. The Verdiblancos have been dominant in recent encounters, winning the last three fixtures between the two sides. The last time the two teams met, in February 2022, Real Betis secured a 4-2 victory.
Player to Watch:
Levante: All eyes will be on new signing Etta Eyong, a highly-rated striker who arrived from Villarreal. He will be looked upon to provide a much-needed attacking spark for the home side.
Real Betis: The focus for Real Betis will be on their key attacking players, including new signing Antony, who has returned to the club on a permanent deal. Cucho Hernández and Giovani Lo Celso will also be crucial in orchestrating the attack.
Prediction:
Given Levante’s struggles and Real Betis’s superior squad quality, the visitors are the favorites to win this match. However, Levante will be desperate for their first win in front of their home fans, and with the return of some key players, they could pose a significant challenge. A narrow victory for Real Betis or a hard-fought draw seems like a very plausible outcome.
