Bayer Leverkusen vs Real Betis prediction

A 4-1 thrashing was not the scoreline most people expected when Bayer Leverkusen played Arsenal in their last match. The German champions were outplayed in all departments and left many fans wondering whether they were really prepared for the new season. This upcoming match gives them a chance to redeem themselves as we get closer to the new season.

Real Betis aren’t doing so well either, with just one win in their last 4 matches. They have just come from a barren draw with Cadiz CF in their last match, and will need a better performance if they are to get a good result from this match. Betis lost to all big teams they have played this pre-season including Manchester United and Liverpool, with their last victory coming against Al Ittihad of Saudi Arabia.

This is a match between two teams that are not doing so well in pre-season and would need this result to boost their morale ahead of the coming season. We expect an open game with plenty of chances for either side, allowing for a good number of goals to be scored. Hence, our Bayer Leverkusen vs Real Betis prediction is Over 2.5 Goals.
