Betis take on the visitors Manchester United in the second leg of UEFA Europa League. The first leg result: 1-4. The match will be played on Thursday, February 16th at Estadio Benito Villamarín (Sevilla).
Betis have always been an ambitious project, and the selection of players they have been quite impressive. But only under Manuel Pellegrini did it turn out to start showing good and, most importantly, stable results. Which are only getting better – just follow the dynamics of the results under the “Engineer”: the long-awaited return to European competitions in 2020/2021, 5th place and victory in the cup within the last temporada. Now the Beticos are trying to fight for the 4th, Champions League position, and eventually succeed in replacing the leaders of their neighbor and enemy, Sevilla, in the quartet. At the same time, in the Europa League, the team plays in Spanish solidly. She lost points only once in the autumn, and then with the group's favorite, “Roma”. And at first they beat the “wolves” Mourinho on their field, and only then giving out 1-1 at home. With outsiders, HJK and Ludogorets, there were 100% results, which ensured the final 1st place. But now the opponent is head and shoulders stronger than even the Jalorossi. What was very clearly shown at “Old Trafford” – the second leg actually turned into a formality.

The “Red Devils” this season as a whole show that their status as a grandee is not just a historical merit, but also a statement of the current, quite high level. No, there are misfires, and 0-7 with Liverpool - this will never be forgotten at all. But it is not necessary because of this to cross out all the current successes of Manchester United, from the long-awaited title, in the form of a victory in the League Cup, to the confident passage of the Europa League. There, by the way, they constantly intersect with representatives of the Examples. In the group stage, they competed with Real Sociedad, and in the end pragmatically exchanged minimal victories, having dealt with a couple of underdogs. But this brought Manchester United only 2nd place in the quartet, and, as a result, sent it to the 1/16 finals, where the other favorite of the tournament, Barcelona, was the opponent. With her, it turned out to give an excellent result with a good game: after 2-2 at the Camp Nou, they gave a strong-willed victory 2-1 at home. At the next stage, the draw again brought together with the Spaniards – Betis. This time, everything was actually decided at home, defeating the representative of Examples 4-1.
It is curious that for the first time the clubs played only at the end of the last calendar year, in a friendly format. Then the only goal was scored by Fekir, bringing victory to the “cucumbers”. After 4-1 in England there is no more tournament intrigue. It remains just to play for fun. So we bet that on Thursday the Spaniards and the British will issue a “over 2.5 goals scored”
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 scored goals.
