On February 17 2019 at 19:45 at the Estadio Benito Villamarin in Sevilla in the upcoming regular match of the 24th game week of the Spanish national elite division La Liga the local Real will play against their guests Deportivo Alaves. This will be the match between two teams fighting for the places in the Euro Cups zone and who are also the neighbors in the standings.
At the moment Betis are on the seventh position in the standings with 32 points gained and the negative goal difference 26:29. Yet, it’s too soon for them to stop fighting as a couple of losses will make them go down closer to the relegation zone. In the latest matches Betis have been rather unstable as they outplayed Atletico 1:0 and Girona 3:2, lost to Leganes 0:3, Athletic 0:1 and Real Madrid 1:2.
As for Alaves, they used the mistakes of the grands in the first half of the season and managed to stay in the Champions League zone for some time. Yet, the time made things right and now the Foxes are on the sixth position in the standings with 35 points gained and 24:27 goal difference. Last weekend they managed to outplay Levante 2:0 while before that they drew Girona 1:1 and lost to Getafe 0:4, Rayo Vallecano 0:1 and Real Madrid 0:3.
Both teams are very solid when they play at home and that is why we think that the hosts are going to have an advantage this time. Moreover, the general level of Sevilla seems to be higher and they are supposed to prove in this Sunday.
