Tip: Real Betis To Win or Draw @ 1.56

A very bold one, undoubtedly, but if there is any time that Betis is most capable of winning a fixture against Atlético Madrid, it is now. Atlético have been dreadful away from home recently, and Betis presently have a decent home record.

Both teams are in the reckoning for a Champions League qualification spot, so we expect a well-contested encounter. Real Betis will take the game to the visitors, and we expect them to try to come out of this with a favorable result. Real Betis to win or draw is available on the sportsbook at Sportsbet.io at 1.56 odds.

Tip: Over 1.5 Goals @ 1.28

Atlético Madrid and Real Betis have one thing in common this season— an average of 3.1 goals per game. Both teams have forwards and outfield players who can get goals when their teams need them, so we expect a result with more than one goal at the end of the game. Over 1.5 goals is available on the Paripesa sportsbook at 1.28 odds.

Conclusion

Real Betis vs. Atlético Madrid is perfectly placed as both teams battle for a European spot. Betis will go 4 points clear of their opponents if they win this fixture, while a win for Atlético will see them climb to 4th place. The stakes are high, so we expect a highly competitive encounter.
