The 2023-24 edition of La Liga returns to the fold with another round of matches this weekend as Granada lock horns with Manuel Pellegrini's Real Betis side in an important encounter at the Estadio Benito Villamarin on Saturday.
Real Betis vs Granada Preview
Granada are currently in 19th place in the La Liga standings and have struggled so far this season. The away side secured a crucial 2-0 victory against Cadiz last week and will be confident ahead of this fixture.
Real Betis, on the other hand, are in seventh place in the league table at the moment and have not been at their best so far this season. The Andalusian giants suffered a shock 1-0 defeat at the hands of Deportivo Alaves in their previous game and will need to bounce back this weekend.
