Betis hosts Celta Vigo in round 19 of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Wednesday, January 20th at Estadio Benito Villamarín (Sevilla)
Betis once again changed the coach in the summer. But the fans are hardly satisfied with Manuel Pellegrini. A qualitative improvement did not happen – the team only showed a powerful and optimistic start, but it doesn’t fight for European Cups as was expected. However, Betis managed to improve its results in winter, and there are some chances to cling to 6-7th places or to make noise in the cup. The Green-and-Whites suffered only two defeats in the last seven rounds (in away matches with Granada and Levante). But they were able to tie with ambitious Villarreal and Sevilla and won three times. The last round ended in a 0:2 away victory over Huesca.

The Celts also changed their mentor in the fall. Eduardo Coudet was invited to Vigo, and the Argentine made a great debut. Yes, his first match ended in a 2-4 defeat to Sevilla, but then Celta managed to score 16 out of 18 possible points (five victories and a draw with Getafe). But in January, the team seemed to have lost its shape. At first, there was a rather anticipated 0-2 defeat to Real Madrid. But after that, the Celts lost the cup match with the modest Ibiza (2:5), which plays at the level of Segunda B. This misfire could be attributed to the fact that Celta is simply not interested in fighting for the Copa Del Rey. The team is focused on LaLiga, where it can eventually take a place in the European Cup zone. However, the Celts were simply destroyed by Villarreal on January 8 - the Yellow Submarine was ahead with a 4-0 score by the 31st minute, and the hosts of that match could not respond with a single accurate shot. The footballers of Celta had a lot of time to rest (almost two weeks), but will this help to return the shape of 2020?
Betis is gradually improving its game, but Celta’s honeymoon with Coudet seems to have ended. The Celts are in some prostration, so we can safely take a bet on the victory of the hosts with a zero handicap.
Prediction for the match: Betis to win with 0.0 handicap
