Sparta Prague vs Real Betis Prediction and Betting Tips | November 30th 2023
Sparta Prague and Real Betis return to action in Group C of the Europa League when they lock horns at Generali Arena on Thursday.
The Spanish outfit head into the midweek clash unbeaten in their last 13 matches across all competitions and will look to keep the momentum.
Sparta Prague maintained their two-point lead at the top of the Czech Republic top-flight table as they picked up a 2-0 victory over Zlin last Sunday.
While Brian Priske’s men have won their last three league matches, they now turn their attention to the Europa League, where they kicked off the campaign with a 3-2 victory over Aris Limassol on September 21 before failing to win their subsequent three matches.
With four points from a possible 12, Sparta Prague are currently third in Group C, just one point above rock-bottom Aris Limassol.
Real Betis, on the other hand, returned to winning ways at the weekend when they scraped a 1-0 victory over Las Palmas in the La Liga.
This came after a 1-1 draw against Sevilla on November 12 which saw their five-match winning streak come to an end.
Real Betis now return to action in the Europa League, where they have picked up nine points from four matches and sit at the top of Group C, two points above second-placed Rangers.
