Valencia kicked off their La Liga campaign with a goalless draw against Celta Vigo over the weekend, which extended their winless run in opening-day fixtures to three seasons.

Both teams have not conceded in this competition so far.
Head coach Carlos Corberan will have to do without a few injured players, including Alberto Mari (muscle), Jose Copete (meniscus), and Luis Rioja (muscle).

The visitors are also plagued by injuries, with some of their first-team players sidelined for this trip, including Abde Ezzalzouli (knee), Aitor Ruibal (meniscus), and Diego Conde (shoulder).
Midfield maestro Giovani Lo Celso (muscle) and Gonzalo Petit (thigh) are also ruled out for Manuel Pellegrini’s side.

Whispers Predicts: Valencia 1-1 Real Betis
At 33/20 (2.65), Real Betis are considered favourites by the bookmakers ahead of this clash.
It is worth mentioning that the visitors have won only one of their last eight competitive away games, and considering that two of the last three H2Hs ended in stalemates, we are confident that the spoils will be shared between these teams after 90 minutes.
Moreover, the last five meetings between these outfits have produced BTTS, and this can be backed at 7/10 (1.70).
We also fancy a 1-1 correct score at 5/1 (6.00). This landed in three of Real Betis' last five competitive away matches and in two of the last three H2Hs.
> Under 2.5 total goals at 10/11 (1.91) | Likelihood: Probable
> BTTS – Yes at 7/10 (1.70) | Likelihood: Probable
> Match result: Draw at 5/2 (3.50) | Likelihood: Possible
> Draw & BTTS – Yes at 16/5 (4.20) | Likelihood: Possible
> Correct Score: 1-1 at 5/1 (6.00) | Likelihood: Possible
