Fresh off an opening-day defeat in the UEFA Europa League, Real Betis host Cadiz in round six of The league on Sunday (September 24).
Betis were denied a dream start to their Europa League campaign, as they fell to a 1-0 loss against Rangers in their Group C opener on Thursday. That was in keeping with their struggles in La Liga, where they have lost two of their last three games. A 1-0 win over Rayo Vallecano on September 2 was sandwiched between the two defeats.
With seven points from five games, Betis are 11th in La Liga, level on points with Cadiz.
Meanwhile, Cadiz were denied successive league wins for the first time since May 2021, as they suffered a 3-0 loss against Athletic Bilbao on Saturday. Before that, Sergio’s men picked up a 3-1 win over Villarreal at the Estadio Nuevo Mirandilla on September 1 to end their two-match winless run.
Following their Bilbao loss, Cadiz have lost their first two away games, conceding five goals and failing to make the net ripple in both games.
Real Betis vs Cadiz Head-to-Head and Key Numbers

Real Betis vs Cadiz Prediction
Betis have struggled to grind out results recently and head into the weekend on a run of just win in five games across competitions. However, Cadiz’s form on the road is nothing to write home about, so Betis should come away with a narrow win.
Prediction: Betis 1-0 Cadiz
