Sevilla vs Betis prediction, H2H and probable lineups — 30 November 2025
As part of Matchday 14 of Spain’s La Liga, Sevilla will face off against Betis. The match is set for Sunday, November 30, with kickoff scheduled for 16:15 Central European Time. I’m backing a bet on the goal total in this encounter.
Match preview
Sevilla’s 2025/26 campaign remains inconsistent, but the team has clearly improved in attack. At the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán, the Rojiblancos play with much more bravery and intensity, applying high pressing and utilizing the pace on the wings right from the opening whistle.
However, it must be said that this approach hasn’t delivered the desired results. Sevilla find the net in almost every match, often creating plenty of chances, but have managed to collect only seven points from six home games.
Overall, the season’s results remain average. Defensive frailties, which have plagued the team for years, persist—Sevilla regularly concede due to positional errors and mistakes when playing out from the back. Even in winning efforts, their defense appears shaky, making their performances unpredictable.
Heading into the Betis clash, Sevilla aren’t on an extended winning or losing streak—their form is patchy, mixing lackluster outings with convincing ones. Yet, the derby on home turf always has special meaning: even in tough seasons, the Rojiblancos tend to give their all in these high-stakes matches.
Betis look more cohesive than their city rivals. The team displays strong attacking dynamics, confidently combining in midfield and exploiting their quick flanks.
Thanks to this, the Verdiblancos consistently create chances in nearly every match, and their play appears well-structured. Even away from home, Betis approach games with courage. While they may not be genuine top-four contenders, their current fifth-place standing is well deserved.
The biggest loss for Manuel Pellegrini ahead of this crucial fixture is Antony. The Brazilian was on the scoresheet in the last match against Girona but received a senseless red card right before the final whistle.
Midweek, Betis enjoyed a successful Europa League outing, defeating Utrecht at home. However, Pellegrini lost Isco and Amrabat to injuries, which is a worrying sign ahead of the upcoming derby.
Match facts
- Sevilla have scored in every home match this season.

H2H
Betis have not won at Sevilla’s ground since 2018.
Prediction
Given Sevilla’s defensive vulnerabilities, Betis have a good chance to come away with a positive result, though Antony’s absence certainly favors the hosts. Considering the derby’s intensity, expect a hard-fought battle, but probably not many goals. My bet is on under 3 goals.
