Analysis and prediction for Real Betis vs Osasuna: Home team overcomes difficulties.

Latest team news for Real Betis vs Osasuna

Real Betis are flying high thanks to the impressive form of Antony – the player on loan from Man United, who has scored 8 goals since January, including a recent strike against Fiorentina. He is certain to start, alongside playmaker Isco in the number 10 position.

However, Betis will be without Ezequiel Avila and Diego Llorente due to injury. Marc Roca's participation is also uncertain due to a leg problem. Several changes will be made compared to the midweek match, with players like Adrian, Johnny Cardoso, Abde Ezzalzouli and Cucho Hernandez likely to start.

Osasuna welcomes back center-back Alejandro Catena after his suspension. Jon Moncayola's participation remains uncertain due to a thigh injury.

The rest of the lineup is likely to remain the same as the match against Villarreal, with Ruben Garcia starting in attack and Ante Budimir – who has scored 18 goals in La Liga this season – continuing as Osasuna's number one striker.

Latest football match prediction: Real Betis vs Osasuna

Real Betis just beat Fiorentina 4-3 on aggregate to reach the UEFA Europa Conference League final against Chelsea on May 28th. The 2-2 draw in the second leg on Thursday was enough to bring Manuel Pellegrini's side closer to a European title.

However, they face a fierce race in La Liga. Real Betis are currently in sixth place, one point behind Villarreal (fifth) and four points behind Athletic Bilbao (fourth). At least, they've secured a place in the top seven, but their bigger goal is a Champions League spot – something they haven't achieved since the 2005-06 season.

Betis are in excellent form with three consecutive wins in La Liga against Girona, Valladolid, and Espanyol. Their final three matches will be against Rayo Vallecano, Atletico Madrid, and Valencia – crucial games that will determine their qualification for next season's Champions League.

On the other side, Osasuna also have no intention of giving up. Coach Vicente Moreno's team is currently ranked 9th, level on points with Rayo (8th) and only 2 points behind Celta Vigo (7th). 8th place would qualify them for the Conference League play-offs, while a top 7 finish would secure direct entry into the Europa League group stage – a promising goal considering they haven't returned to European competition since the 2006-07 UEFA Cup.

Osasuna recently lost 2-4 to Villarreal, but prior to that they won against Girona, Valladolid, and Sevilla. However, they have lost all three of their most recent encounters with Real Betis in La Liga, including a 1-2 defeat in the first leg and their most recent trip to Seville in October 2023.
