La Liga returns with another round of action this week as Valencia welcomes Manuel Pellegrini's Real Betis to the Estadio de Mestalla on Thursday.

Valencia are currently in 11th place in the league table with only 16 points to show for their efforts. So far, they have had a very rough season and have not been at their best. Los Che will be coming into this game following a 1-1 draw in their last game. This result has seen them come out with 3 draws and 2 losses in their last 5 - a terrible run of games. Going into this game, Valencia have not registered a win against their visitors, Real Betis in their previous 4 league games and have also not won at home in their last 3 matches in the league.

Real Betis, on the other hand, are in fifth place in the league table at the moment and have been fairly impressive so far this season. Their efforts on goal has seen them rewarded with 17 goals so far this season, while maintaining a strong defense. At the back they have only conceded 9 goals all season, making them the second best defense in the league, with group leaders Barcelona being the first. Their brilliant performances and good record has earned them 24 points all season, equally tied with 3rd and 4th placed Athletic Club and Atletico Madrid. Going into this game, Real Betis have not been beaten by Valencia when they have played them away from home in the previous 2 league games and are also undefeated in their last 3 away league matches.

Looking at key numbers has revealed that Valencia are winless in their last four games against Real Betis in La Liga. They have lost their last two home games against Real Betis without scoring a single goal. Real Betis on the other hand have won their last three away games against teams from the Valencia region in La Liga and are only one victory away from setting a personal best in this regard.

Real Betis have grown in stature under Manuel Pellegrini and have been in impressive form this season, giving them a clear advantage going into this game. Valencia on the other hand have been in poor form and might struggle here. We are predicting that the visitors, Real Betis will be strong enough to completely avoid a defeat here by either taking all three points by the end of the game, or by earning a well fought draw.

西甲本周将迎来新一轮的比赛，巴伦西亚将于周四在梅斯塔利亚球场迎来佩莱格里尼的皇家贝蒂斯。

瓦伦西亚目前在积分榜上排名第11，只有16分可以证明他们的努力。到目前为止，他们度过了一个非常艰难的赛季，并没有处于最佳状态。洛斯切队将在上一场1-1战平后进入本场比赛。在过去的5场比赛中，他们取得了3平2负的成绩——这是一场糟糕的比赛。在本场比赛之前，瓦伦西亚在过去的4场联赛中没有战胜他们的客队皇家贝蒂斯，而且在最近的3场联赛中也没有在主场赢过球。

另一方面，皇家贝蒂斯目前在联赛积分榜上排名第五，本赛季到目前为止表现相当不错。本赛季到目前为止，他们在进球方面的努力已经让他们收获了17个进球，同时保持了强大的防守。在后防线上，他们整个赛季只丢了9球，这使他们的防守在联赛中排名第二，小组第一的巴萨是第一。他们出色的表现和良好的战绩为他们整个赛季赢得了24分，与排名第三和第四的竞技俱乐部和马德里竞技并列。在这场比赛之前，皇家贝蒂斯在之前的2场联赛中客场对阵瓦伦西亚时从未被瓦伦西亚击败过，而且在最近的3场联赛中也保持不败。

从关键数据可以看出，瓦伦西亚在西甲最近四场对阵皇家贝蒂斯的比赛中没有一场胜利。他们最近两场主场对阵皇家贝蒂斯，一球未进。另一方面，皇家贝蒂斯在西甲最近三次客场战胜来自瓦伦西亚地区的球队，离创造个人最好成绩只差一场胜利。

在佩莱格里尼的带领下，皇家贝蒂斯的地位有所提高，本赛季的状态也令人印象深刻，这让他们在这场比赛中占据了明显的优势。另一方面，瓦伦西亚状态不佳，可能会在这里挣扎。我们预测客队皇家贝蒂斯足够强大，可以在比赛结束前拿到全部三分，或者赢得一场精彩的平局，从而完全避免在这里输球。
