Spanish Primera - Valencia vs Betis Football betting preview

Valencia V Real Betis

Valencia and Betis both need three points here tonight with the hosts still in with a shout of a European spot while the visitors need points to keep themselves above the bottom three.

Valencia's home form which was usually their strong point has been very poor this term. They are without a win in 4 games and have failed to score in those four games also. However, the home team are looking to build on their 2-0 victory away at Valladolid last weekend and with only 9 points berween them and a place in Europe you can expect a determined effort from the home side tonight. Valencia have also shown they have the measure of Betis in recent weeks, beating them home and away in the Copa del Rey. David Villa is back after injury and his presence will be a major boost for the home outfit.

After three previous defeats to Valencia already this season, Betis will look to turn their luck around but the facts are that they are a very poor travelling side. With only 2 wins from 11 and 7 goals scored, they have an away strike-rate that is only worsened by bottom side Levante.

The worst part of their away stats are that they have failed to score in 7 away games and if their lacklustre efforts persist in front of goal tonight then they will be up against it from the start

Valencia look to have turned a corner and if they can get things right can be one of the better sides in La Liga. I think they have enough to take the three points here.
