The biggest match of the weekend in Spain takes place at the Estadio Benito Villamarín on Sunday the 6th of March as Real Betis entertain Atletico Madrid.
The hosts begin the weekend in 3rd place on 46 points while the visitors are in 5th place on 45 points, so there is all to play for in terms of Champions League qualification.
Real Betis come into the match having been held to a 1-1 draw in their previous fixture which was at home against Rayo Vallecano in the Copa del Rey semi-final.
Having won the away leg 2-1, that result was enough to see Real Betis progress to the final of the competition, where they will meet Valencia.
The draw with Rayo Vallecano means Real Betis are undefeated in 6 of their last 7 matches in all competitions and have lost only 2 of their last 14.
However, they have been inconsistent in the league of late and Real Betis have recorded 4 wins from their last 9 La Liga fixtures. The wins have come at home against Alaves and Mallorca plus away to Espanyol and Levante.
Trends show Real Betis have not been beaten in 30 of their 35 most recent home matches in all competitions. They have seen over 2.5 goals scored in 6 of their last 9 home La Liga fixtures and have kept only 2 clean sheets in those 9 games.
Atletico Madrid make the trip to the Estadio Benito Villamarín on the back of a 2-0 win at home over Celta Vigo in La Liga.
Atletico Madrid opened the scoring 10 minutes before half-time and added a second goal on the hour mark. That result means Atletico Madrid are undefeated in 4 of their last 5 matches in all competitions.
In addition to the win over Celta Vigo, Atletico Madrid have beaten Getafe at home and Osasuna away in La Liga plus been held to a 1-1 draw at home by Manchester United in the Champions League.
Atletico Madrid have won 3 of their last 4 league games but only 1 of their 6 most recent away matches in La Liga. However, Atletico Madrid are undefeated in 19 of their last 20 games against Real Betis in all competitions and have scored 2 or more goals in their 3 most recent away league matches.
Team news and Real Betis are without suspended midfielder Sergio Canales. Víctor Camarasa, Juan Miranda, and Martin Montoya are all on the treatment table.
Atletico Madrid are missing central defender Stefan Savic due to suspension. Mario Hermoso, Geoffrey Kondogbia, Matheus Cunha, and Daniel Wass are injured.
This is a key game in the battle for the top four and a win for either team could prove crucial. We expect to see both teams score and Atletico Madrid to maintain their record of scoring at least 2 away from home. The 2 goals could be enough to see Atletico Madrid win the match and move above Real Betis into the top four.
