Valencia CF will return to La Liga action with a sense of urgency and hope after a long and difficult pause due to the catastrophic floods that struck the region. Their last match was in late October, a 1-1 draw against Getafe, but with two league games postponed, they now find themselves in the unenviable position of having to make up lost ground. Sitting at the foot of the La Liga table with just seven points from 11 matches, Rubén Baraja’s side are desperate for a win. However, the challenge ahead is far from easy, as they face a Real Betis team on the back of an unbeaten run and with top-six aspirations.
This clash presents a critical opportunity for both teams, albeit for different reasons. Valencia are stuck in a rut, struggling to find form after a miserable start to the season. Meanwhile, Real Betis will aim to continue their strong run of results but will need to improve on their poor away form if they are to challenge for European spots. Both teams have their issues: Valencia’s lack of goals and Betis’ inconsistency on the road. Our analysis dives deeper into these aspects, looking at player availability, tactical trends, and recent form to offer an expert breakdown of what could unfold at the Mestalla.
Valencia’s season has been nothing short of a disaster so far, and the floods only added to their troubles. With a solitary win from their opening 11 games (W1, D4, L6), they come into this match on the back of a five-match winless run (D3, L2).
The international break may have given them some time to regroup, but their ongoing struggles in attack have been a major issue, with just 10 goals scored in 11 games. To make matters worse, Baraja’s team has shown an inability to break down opponents, and they will need to do something drastically different to improve their attacking output. The Mestalla is still a place where Valencia can be dangerous, and their only league victory came there in a 2-0 win over Girona, but it feels like an uphill battle against a strong Betis side.
Real Betis, under the guidance of Manuel Pellegrini, have been far more consistent. Unbeaten in their last seven matches (W4, D3), they are one of the more solid mid-table sides in La Liga this season. However, their recent results have often come by narrow margins, with just one win in those seven matches by more than a single goal. Betis have been tough to beat but have not been the free-scoring side they were in previous campaigns.
Their biggest issue, like Valencia’s, has been converting chances into goals on the road. Only one win from eight away matches (D5, L2) is a poor return, and Pellegrini will know that improvement is necessary if they are to secure a top-six finish. The form of Giovani Lo Celso, who has been crucial to their attack, could prove pivotal in unlocking the Valencia defense.
This will be a crucial match for both teams, and while Valencia will certainly have the home advantage, their form and lack of attacking edge make them the underdogs. Betis, on the other hand, come into this match with better overall form and a deeper squad, but their away struggles mean they cannot afford to underestimate the hosts. Expect a tightly contested encounter where Betis' greater quality and form should help them edge out a narrow victory, but Valencia will fight hard to get something from the game, especially in front of their home crowd.

Our predicted score for this match is Valencia 1-2 Real Betis. While Valencia have struggled this season, they still have enough quality to make this game competitive, especially at home. However, Betis' solid form and attacking options should see them get over the line. For betting, we recommend Both teams to score. Betis have been able to find the net regularly, even if their victories have been tight, and Valencia's defense has shown enough vulnerabilities to suggest they won’t keep a clean sheet. This bet captures both Betis’ ability to win and their potential to score more than once in a match they will be looking to control.
