Match Highlights

The victory of the green and white team from Seville passed directly through the balance between the sectors and the defensive security presented during the ninety minutes. In a match with few concessions, the pragmatic attitude of the visitors made the difference against an Elche that was seeking stability in the competition. The result rewards Real Betis' ability to convert its crucial opportunities into a traditionally difficult terrain.

What the Numbers Say

The result represents an important recovery for Real Betis, which came from a record of 2 wins, 1 draw, and 2 losses in its recent commitments prior to the match. Meanwhile, Elche now sums up its second consecutive defeat, stagnating the good moment it previously sustained, when it recorded 2 wins, 2 draws, and 1 loss in the five games prior to this match. The points won away from home bring tranquility to the Seville team for the sequence of the national tournament.
