The Seville team ended a three-match winless streak in the league by defeating Real Sociedad 3-1 in their previous outing. However, Betis couldn't break their streak of conceding goals in La Liga, which has now reached four matches.

Real Betis vs. Osasuna: Match Prediction
The hosts are clear favorites for the upcoming match, but I don't think it will be an easy game for Real Betis. The Seville team is not in the best form, having won only 2 of their last 20 matches in the Spanish league. Additionally, the fact that Manuel Pellegrini's side has an away Europa League match in the middle of next week suggests they might not exert themselves too much or aim for a big win.
Osasuna is a tough opponent, having not lost by more than one goal in their last 10 La Liga matches. During this stretch, they've faced strong teams like Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Villarreal, and even Betis, with whom they drew 1-1. However, the visitors are unlikely to win, as Osasuna has struggled away from home, failing to win in 16 of their last 17 league matches (8 draws, 8 losses). I also don't expect many goals in the upcoming match, as the hosts won't be overly aggressive, keeping the Europa League game in mind, and Osasuna's matches have been the least productive in the current La Liga season. Therefore, I anticipate a tight game with few goals scored.
The best betting option for the upcoming match is: "1X + Total under 3.5 goals"
