The ratings are suggesting that there is not much value in backing Real Betis to win this match in what looks an extremely tough looking encounter in which to find a winner and Betis can be backed at 6/4 (2.50) with Ladbrokes.
If you do fancy Betis to win then this price can be improved by dutching them to win by 1 or 2 goals and this has been the winning margin in all 6 of Reals last 6 home wins and in all 5 of Sevillas last 5 away defeats. Dutching the Betis win by 1 or 2 goals pays 9/5 (2.80) and this looks a very reasonable option.
There is a strong draw bias to this game and the draw can be backed at 23/10 (3.30) with Ladbrokes and although this offers no real value it has to be given some serious consideration when looking at who may win this game.
Sevilla are priced at 15/8 (2.88) with corals and this looks to offer some small value. However if you do fancy Sevilla to do well then you are best keeping the draw on your side and Sevilla can be backed on the Asian Handicap off scratch +0 goals at 12/11 (2.09) with 188 Bet and this looks a very good option.
If you are convinced Sevilla will not lose then you could go on the Asian Handicap +0.25 goals at 3/4 (1.75) with 188 bet and this means should the game end a draw then you receive half of your odds. However you can be more aggressive with your staking if you believe Betis will not win the game.
As far as goals are concerned then there is a definite bias to 2 or less and Under 2.5 goals can be backed at an attractive looking 4/5 (1.80) with bwin. There have been 2 or less goals in 10 of Betis last 15 home games and in 10 of Sevillas last 15 away.
With such a low scoring bias this then brings in the No on both teams to score and both teams have not scored in 9 of Betis last 15 home games and in 10 of Sevillas last 15 away. The No on both teams to score can be backed at 21/20 (2.05) with bwin and again looks to offer value.
Finally there is every chance we will have a tight start to this game and Betis have been level at the break in 4 of their last 5 home games with 4 0-0 HT Scores and in the case of Sevilla they have been drawing at HT in 5 of their last 7 away games again all 5 0-0 at HT.
This leaves us with a number of viable options. The Half time draw can be backed at 11/10 (2.10) Bet 365 with the 0-0 Half time score priced at 24/13 (2.85) with Bwin. Alternately the 1st goal of the game to come after 27 minutes can be backed at Evens (2.00) with Boylesports and the latter looks the best option but we would look to cover the 0-0 scoreline after the 27th minute.
