Thursday, from 20:00, Betis will receive Stade Rennais in a match for the UEFA Europa League final match “16th”. The game will take place at the “Benito Villamarin” stadium in Seville.
After the fabulous start of the match on the Roazhon Park, when he led 2-0 at the 10th minute, Rennes really believed in her chance to get in front of solid Betis Sevilla. Unfortunately for the French, even after 3-1 at the break, the Iberians had the power to come back and to pull off even a gold draw in the last minute of the game, condemning Rennes to a ultra-defensive game, basically to a victory on “Benito Villamarin” to qualify further. This scenario is one less likely than Betis has suffered a single defeat in the last four months, just ahead of the big Real Madrid (1-2). In this context, it is clear why Rennes even gets a 5.50 share in some bookmakers to break ice in Seville and qualify further.
Probable teams:
Betis (3-4-2-1): Robles- Mandi, Garcia, Sidnei- Joaquin, Carvalho, Canales, Guardado- Lo Celso, Lainez- Moron
Rennes (4-4-2): Koubek – Traore, Silva, Mexer, Bensebaini – Ben Arfa, Andre, Grenier, Niang – Bourigeaud, Hunou
Given the circumstances of this game, we expect a spectacular hostile run. Even if we do not think we will witness a rainfall, as in the tour, it is important to understand that Rennes has nothing to lose and that he will attack the “Benito Villamarin” and will unfurl in defense, reason for which the offensive system of the hosts could take advantage without too much hesitation.
PREDICTION: Betis to win @ 1,65
