Villarreal will look to celebrate the club’s 101st anniversary with a win at the Benito Villamarín
Villarreal CF are on an upward trajectory in LALIGA and the last few games are proof of this. So much so that Marcelino’s men have managed to beat Real Sociedad away (1-3) and Granada CF conviningly at home against (5-1). However, the Submarine, with the aim of continuing to grow and look to the top, will be looking for a victory this Sunday at 21.00 against Real Betis at the Benito Villamarín to maintain the upward dynamic and celebrate 101 years of the club’s history.
Villarreal CF go into the game on a positive run, having gone seven games unbeaten in domestic competition. The Yellows have three wins and four draws, winning at stadiums of the calibre of the Reale Arena and the Lluis Companys. However, it will not be an easy game. The Benito Villamarín is a fortress, and in the current LaLiga EA Sports campaign only FC Barcelona have managed to beat Betis at their stadium.
Real Betis, meanwhile, come into the game after losing to Atlético Madrid at the Cívitas Metropolitano (2-1), but are sixth in the table with 42 points, highlighting the Andalusian club’s good season.
Furthermore, the stadium in Sevilla always hosts a very evenly matched duel between the two teams. The record indicates this, with six wins for the Submarine, five draws and seven defeats in the 18 matches played between the two teams in Seville, the last victory coming in the 2021/22 season with a 0-2 win with goals from Pau Torres and Étienne Capoue.
