Last season's third-placed Villarreal still cannot record a victory in the new campaign. They started with three consecutive away games, from which they only earned two points. Then came their first home game against La Coruña, where they were expected to win. However, that did not happen, and they lost 2-3. They also conceded the same score in their away match against Dortmund in the Champions League. Thus, out of a total of five matches, they are still without a win and without a clean sheet. Four of those matches had goals at both ends and over 3.5 goals.
Betis is enjoying a much better start. Pellegrini's team has won four out of their five matches in all competitions so far. However, they were brought back down to earth in their last league visit, losing 2-5 to Levante. At least in their last match, they won away against Lille 3-2 in the Champions League, and before that, they defeated Real Madrid 1-0 at home in La Liga.
Prediction: both teams to scoreVillarreal is clearly experiencing problems defensively, as they have conceded quite a few goals since the start of the season. Betis, on the other hand, definitely looks like a team capable of scoring at least once against the "yellow submarine," and in my opinion, there are all signs that we will see goals at both ends in this interesting match.
