Girona vs Real Betis Prediction: Hosts’ strong home form to continue

Girona will look to kick Real Betis while they are down after the latter's Uefa Europa League dream was shattered at home to Sporting Braga last Thursday. The two sides meet at Estadi Montilivi on Tuesday in La Liga (20:30 BST, Premier Sports Player).

The hosts have been very impressive at home in recent months and this plays into my Girona vs Real Betis predictions, complete with team news and match odds.

Team News

Knee issues have sidelined Girona duo Juan Carlos and Portu, while Abel Ruiz will miss out with a muscle problem. Donny van de Beek (Achilles) and Vladyslav Vanat (hamstring) are also injured for the hosts.

Boss Michel could opt to stick with the same Xi that started in the 1-1 draw at Real Madrid on April 10.

Football Odds

Betis winger Antony is unavailable due to suspension for an accumulation of yellow cards. Junior Firpo (muscle) and Angel Ortiz (shoulder) are doubts to feature because of injury problems.

Girona vs Real Betis Odds

Girona have won three of their previous four home matches in La Liga, and they are 7/5 to prevail on Tuesday.

The draw is priced at 12/6, with Betis having drawn their last two fixtures in the top flight. The visitors are a 9/5 bet to end their seven-game winless run in the league.

Betis have seen five of their past seven outings in La Liga go Under 2.5 Goals, which is valued at 10/11 on this occasion.

Today's Football Fixtures

Match Result - Girona @ 7/5

There were concerns about Girona earlier in the season but they are currently mid-table with a six-point cushion above the bottom three. Their home form has played a huge role, with just two defeats from their previous 12 outings at Montilivi in La Liga.

The Blanquivermells are good value to win this clash at 7/5, which has an implied probability of 41.7%. They have won three of their last four home games and they are up against a Betis side winless in seven in the league.

Manuel Pellegrini's men are also likely going to be vulnerable after their Europa League exit on Thursday.

Both Teams To Score - Yes @ 8/11

Both Teams To Score has been a trend for Betis on the road of late. Six of their past eight away trips in La Liga have seen both teams find the net, and I fancy this to continue against Girona.

This has also been a winning selection in six of the hosts' nine most recent matches in the top flight, including their draw at Real Madrid last time out. It's also worth noting that November's reverse fixture ended 1-1 in Seville.
