Real Betis will be bidding to return to winning ways in La Liga when they welcome relegation-threatened Cadiz to Seville on Sunday afternoon. The home side are currently fifth in the table, three points behind fourth-placed Real Sociedad, while Cadiz are 15th, only one point outside of the relegation zone in Spain’s top flight.
Real Betis are firmly in the mix for a top-four spot at this stage of the campaign, picking up 45 points from their 27 matches, which has left them in fifth position in the table. Manuel Pellegrini’s side are only three points behind fourth-placed Real Sociedad, and it does appear that the two teams, alongside Villarreal, will battle for fourth position in the table, as Atletico Madrid are now comfortably third, six points ahead of Real Sociedad.
Real Betis have actually only won one of their last six matches in all competitions, which is a run of form that includes losses to Manchester United in the Europa League, while they suffered a 1-0 defeat to Atletico in Spain’s top flight last Sunday, with Angel Correa hitting the winner late on.
The Green and Whites have not finished fourth in La Liga since 2005, while they were playing Segunda Division football eight years ago, so it would be a huge achievement to claim a Champions League spot for next term.

Real Betis vs Cádiz Prediction
Real Betis have failed to score in just one of their last five home games and are likely to find the back of the net. The visitors have failed to score in three of their last five away games.
Considering the recent history between the two teams and Betis’ home advantage, we back them to eke out a win and the odds of a clean sheet also look good.
