Over 2.5 Goals
Man Utd put four goals past Real Betis at Old Trafford last week, though they probably should have buried double that amount on a night where they created chance after chance. Betis will need to chase the game from the off in the second leg and there should be plenty of room for the Red Devils to counter into in Seville. An open game should be in the works then, and our first Real Betis vs Man Utd prediction forecasts over 2.5 goals to rattle the net again.
Both Teams to Score
Real Betis managed to open the scoring first in Manchester last week and they might have lodged another consolation from the opportunities they manufactured in the opening 45 minutes. Driven on by their fanatical home support, Betis could breach a changed United defence again on Thursday, however, the Red Devils showed in the first leg that they can open the Spaniard’s defence at will, and as such, a stake on both teams to score could be worth considering for the second encounter between the teams in a row.
