Real Betis and Real Sociedad face this Tuesday at 8 pm at the Benito Villamarin stadium counting for the round of 16 of the King’s Cup. The two teams have met twice this season, the last time last Sunday when Real Sociedad playing at home let advantage of 2 goals escape and allowing the tie already in the final minutes.
In the other game at Betis’ home, there was a conclusive victory by Real Sociedad by 3 unanswered goals in October 2020.
Manuel Pellegrini’s Betis are in excellent shape. He has not lost 6 games in all competitions, having recorded his last away loss to Levante 4-3.
The team produces good football and goals is currently in 8th place in the championship, with 26 goals scored and 34 conceded.
The team defensively has a lot to improve because it is the worst in the league with Granada. The heavy defeats with Barcelona 5-2 and Bilbao 4-0, both away, contributed to this.
They have an excellent lot of players (William Carvalho has not even started). Nabil Fekir, Sergio Canales, Andrés Guardado, promising Mexican advanced Diego Lainez, and immortal Joaquin and the well-known Cristian Tello (ex-Porto) are an example of this.
Betis seeks to move forward in the King’s Cup to try to secure a place directly in the Europa League through this competition since they are not yet classified in the European zone in the championship.
Real Sociedad, is 6th classified with 31 points, 3 ahead of its opponent and in a better position, since it is in the last place of access to the Europa League.
The team started La Liga very well, reached 1st place in the competition, but afterwards, it dropped a lot in production, since November 26 that it only won 2 games for all competitions (both away from home and against Bilbao for La Liga and Cordoba for the King’s Cup).
Both coach Imanol Alguacil and attacking trident Portu, Isak and Oyarzabal want to turn the situation around and quickly return to victories and consistent displays.
I predict a game very similar to last Saturday, as goals for both sides.
