Live in-play betting – 

Athletico Bilbao enter this home game after 2 consecutive wins.  Playing at home gives them an opportunity to take that figure to 3.

They are currently 6th in the table, just 1 point behind Villarreal who are 5th.

They have won 4 of their last 6 games and have won 7 of their last 8 home games.

They are one of the most difficult teams to play when they are at home.

They currently lead 7th placed Sociedad by just 1 point and would love to get nothing but 3 points in this game so that they can keep that position on the table.

Real Betis are 14th in the league table after collecting 37 points from 33 league games.

They are currently on a 2 game winning streak, and would fancy their chances of making it 3 with a win in this encounter.

Real Betis defeated Celta Vigo 0-1 in their last away game, however, they got no points from the previous 3 away games, but they have managed to score a goal in their last 7 away matches.

Losing this game would see them drop to 15th position if Malaga wins their own fixture.
