Betis take on the visitors Valladolid in the round 33 match of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Thursday, April 24th at Estadio Benito Villamarín (Sevilla).
Betis haven’t quite replicated their peak under Pellegrini in 2022, when they lifted the Copa del Rey and finished fifth in La Liga. But even last season, they managed to beat Villarreal in the battle for seventh place and qualify at least for the Conference League. Although the autumn campaign in Europe was rocky, they still made it to the playoffs, where they knocked out Gent, Vitória Guimarães, and Jagiellonia to reach the semi-finals. Their winter acquisition of Antony has added much-needed depth and quality to the attack. They’ve become more consistent in La Liga, with improved build-up play and fewer defensive errors. Despite the recent loss to Villarreal in a crucial match for fifth place, they bounced back strongly with a composed win over a struggling Girona on Monday.

Valladolid are looking pitiful even by relegation standards. The Pucelanos have been relegated from La Liga multiple times in recent years. That’s how their 2022/2023 campaign ended, too. But they had typically managed to bounce back from Segunda quickly, as they did by earning direct promotion in 2023/2024. This time, however, Ronaldo’s project seems utterly broken. Coaching changes have only made things worse, and the team has shown almost no resilience in 2025. They've managed just a couple of draws since the turn of the year, and the gap to safety has ballooned to over ten points. Even when they scored twice against Osasuna last weekend, they still ended up on the losing side again, this time 2-3.
The Verdiblancos had alternated wins and draws in five consecutive meetings. But in January, they surprisingly lost 0-1 to the already doomed underdog. Betis are clearly the stronger side, but the question is how convincingly they’ll win. Back the hosts to cover a -1.5 goal handicap.
Prediction for the match: Betis to win with -1.5 handicap.
