Real Betis
2 : 1
Feyenoord
Europa League
This marks the first competitive Champions League meeting between Real Betis and Feyenoord. They met previously in January’s Europa League, where Manuel Pellegrini’s side won 2-1. Historically, home fixtures for Los Verdiblancos against Eredivisie opposition yield high-tempo football, averaging a steady 2.5 goals per game across modern European fixtures in Seville.
Real Betis team overview
Real Betis enters this one on the back of a humiliating 5-2 league defeat to Barcelona over the weekend. Los Verdiblancos have enjoyed a highly respectable start to their Champions League campaign, picking up six points from their two games so far.
Honestly, their efficiency at the Benito Villamarín is what usually dictates their season.
Manuel Pellegrini's men have won eight of their last nine home games across all competitions, including wins over Real Madrid in the league and Porto in the Champions League.
Abde Ezzalzouli has been the absolute main man, scoring three times in the league and once in the Champions League. Antony and Isco are both likely to return to the starting eleven this week after playing no minutes against Barcelona last time out.

Feyenoord team overview
Feyenoord prepares for this one on the back of a five match winning run across all competitions. The Rotterdam outfit have experienced a brutal rollercoaster start to their European campaign, slumping to a heavy 5-1 defeat to Barcelona in their opening league phase game.
Brian Priske’s men responded with a 3-2 win over Serie A side Como in their second game and will be hoping for more of the same this week. Domestically, they sit top of the table after picking up seven wins and two draws from nine encounters.
Their primary concern heading into this trip is a highly erratic defensive shape on the road. The Pride of South have kept just one clean sheet in their last five away games, shipping 11 goals in the process .
Nacho Ferri has been the definitive catalyst, spearheading the line with six league goals in eight matches this season. However, the team will have to sweat on the fitness of midfielder Luciano Valente due to a minor hamstring issue.

Prediction
Expect absolute fireworks here. Feyenoord's defensive shape away from home is highly questionable right now, but their attack packs enough punch to pierce anyone on the break. Real Betis possess a terrifying creative edge on their own turf with Lo Celso directing traffic. I'm calling a dramatic 2-2 draw.
Three reasons we expect over 1.5 goals in the 2nd half of this game
- All the last three games of Real Betis finished with five or more goals.
- Feyenoord scored two or more goals in each of their last five matches.
- Four of the last five games of Feyenoord produced over 4.5 goals.
