Real Betis is arguably the weakest team in the league. Even their main rivals in the fight for survival, Girona and Zaragoza, lost on home soil to Casimiro’s men. The Sevilla side are unlikely to fare better against Gran Canaria. The Islanders are two heads stronger, so they must win this one handily.
Betis has a big problem with their attacking play. At home, Casimiro’s side are averaging around 75 points. Against Gran Canaria, the home side will probably not play any better. The game has every chance of being a low-scoring.
Real Betis has failed to climb out of the bottom of the standings. The Sevilla side has lost 11 of its 13 games so far this season and is currently sitting in last place. All of this is dampening the players’ faith, although the head coach is doing his best to get them in the right frame of mind.
Luis Casimiro’s men last won in early December, when they defeated Granada away (76-66). Since then, Real Betis has suffered three straight defeats. In their last home game, the Sevilla side lost to Breogan (84-89).
In four of the last six games, the hosts have scored a maximum of 76 points.
Gran Canaria is a great team that can fight on equal terms with almost every opponent in the Spanish championship. In the last round, for example, the Islanders defeated Valencia (95-89) at home, although they’re a little worse on the road. Jaka Lakovic’s men have lost 50% of their games on foreign soil so far this season.
At the moment, Gran Canaria has eight wins under its belt. These successes allow the team to take seventh place in the Spanish championship. As you know, this position qualifies for one of the playoffs.
In the last three Gran Canaria games in all tournaments, there have been at least 40 points on two in the first quarter.
Casimiro’s side has scored less than 79 points in 3 of its last 4 home games. We offer to bet on “Real Betis Points Under 79.5” with odds of 1.62.
