Barcelona – Betis Sevilla betting tip, prediction & odds 15/01/2025

Copa del Rey, round of 16, Wednesday, 15/01/2025 at 9:00 pm

Hansi Flick won his first title with Barcelona on Sunday, and has already handed arch-rivals Real Madrid their second defeat of the season. After beating Bilbao 2-0 in the Supercopa, they went on to beat the capital city club 5-2 in the final.

Even a red card early in the second half did not unsettle the team. Now, the cup action continues on Wednesday. In the Copa del Rey, they face Betis at home.

Barca are clearly ahead in the odds – too clearly? The Andalusians would be a surprise, no question. But I think they can score. “Both teams score” from Oddset is my quote! Why? You can read that in my Barcelona Betis Sevilla betting tip.

Supercopa won and Dani Olmo is back in the Catalan squad. The Spanish supreme sports court has granted him eligibility to play in the final. Previously, the top club sold 475 VIP seats to Saudi Arabian and Qatari hands for 100 million euros.

Barca are on the up again. Last week I was still talking about a slump, but in the end I also referred to the brave football they are playing, even if some of the results at the end of 2024 were not right.

In the end, the goal scored by both teams against Bilbao was not a bad bet. The Basques had a few chances and finally pushed the ball over the line twice, but twice from an offside position.

Otherwise, I got off to a good start in 2025. And despite the failure to reach the Supercopa semi-finals, I’m going to take another look at both teams’ goal against Betis Sevilla in the Copa del Rey round of 16!

I doubt that centimeters will again cost me a bet. A goal from either team is available at 1.68, a strong price that can also be attributed to Barcelona’s clear favoritism.

Finally, the Catalans are only getting 1.28 from Betano ahead of their home game, which is being played at the Olympic Stadium again before the return to the Camp Nou. The first match in the newly renovated mega-stadium is now scheduled for February.

Betis Sevilla have to settle for the underdog role, with odds of 9.50 at traditional betting provider Oddset, who also have a few odds boosts in store for you. The Barca win with over 3.5 goals in the package is at 2.35.

There is also an improved 3.75 for the bet that Robert Lewandowski will score the first goal of the game. You know my tips, I prefer something lower.

Finally, my mission is to find the most realistic odds for you, which are at least above the 1.50 mark. And I definitely see value in the bet that both teams will score.

Bilbao were unlucky twice, but the Madrilenians scored twice against Barca. A team that plays high up, combines quickly and wants to decide the games through offense. We rarely see a clean sheet, especially in recent months.

In the Copa del Rey, they also managed a clean sheet, but Barbastro was not a notable opponent, so I am not giving it too much weight in the classification.

In the six games before that, however, starting with a 1-2 loss to Las Palmas, a 5-1 win over Mallorca, a 2-2 draw against Betis, a 3-2 win over Dortmund, a 0-1 win over Leganes, and a 1-2 loss to Atletico Madrid, the clean sheet did not last.

And yes, Betis Sevilla were also among them, and with two goals conceded, the Flick team were well served. The equalizer in the fourth minute of stoppage time was of course bitter, but the course of the game showed that there was more in it for the FC Sevilla rivals.

And if you play high up, you’re vulnerable to counterattacks. Bayern was not known for having the best defense. In 86 matches, the Dominator of Germany conceded one goal per match on average.

In view of the many goals scored, however, it was no disaster and for the neutral football fan, the games are a pleasure for the eye. I also found the 1-2 defeat to Atletico most impressive, even though Barca left the pitch as losers.

What the team conjured up offensively, without however rewarding themselves, was insane. And Barca now has the efficiency rate under control again.

Nevertheless, the game against the men in green and white will be no walk in the park. Betis were the better team in the only direct duel this season, and Barca have played one more game in the last week and also had to fly back from Saudi Arabia.

There are only three days between the final and the Betis match. In addition, Wojciech Szczesny is missing through suspension. Also, in the center of defense, no one should get injured anymore, so that a significant loss of quality can be prevented.

The guests, on the other hand, have almost a full squad available, but have been struggling so far. Only tenth in the league, they recently suffered a 1-0 defeat against Valladolid, who were bottom of the table at the time, and only managed 15th place in the Conference League.

Conclusion: Yes, we are not yet seeing the parade season from Betis. At league level, they have only managed one win in their last five matches, but they have only lost one of their last four games. In addition, the Andalusians are scoring goals, having scored in seven of their last eight games.

Barca put in a strong performance against Real, but conceded two goals and were lucky against Bilbao to keep a clean sheet. The team shines above all in offense, but is so high up in defense that it is sometimes completely open.

Added to this are the travel kilometers, two games in Saudi Arabia and the celebrations after the triumph against Madrid just a few days ago. Nevertheless, Barca should win the match, but the clean sheet should be avoided!

My Barcelona Betis Sevilla prediction: Both Teams to Score!
