Real Betis welcome Espanyol to the Benito Villamarin Stadium knowing that victory may be enough to put 11 points between them and the relegation zone.Meanwhile, bottom-placed Espanyol head into the contest on Thursday evening sitting five points adrift of 17th-placed Eibar in the La Liga standings.

A home victory over Real Madrid is the only time Betis have scored the opener across their last seven LL contests at any venue. At home, that trend has also been prevalent, with Betis conceding the opener in 66.67% of their LL games here. However, they’ve established a reputation as strong fighters through registering a home record of W3, D4, L3 when doing so.

Espanyol have failed to open the scoring in four consecutive LL away games (D2, L2), and prior to that, faced the opposite issue to their hosts: they recorded the first goal in five of 11 LL fixtures on the road, but managed to convert just two into victory (D1, L2), fading out with an away goal difference of -6 after the 60th minute across the season.

In fact, their current five-game LL winless away run has been accrued in spite of a level half-time score in all five games. Additionally, Espanyol have failed to outscore their opposition after the break in their last 13 LL away contests (W2, D3, L7).
