UEFA Europa League: Real Betis vs Feyenoord
Kickoff Time: 2026-1-30 4:00 (HKT)
Real Betis suffered a 1-2 defeat against Alavés in La Liga last weekend, marking their second consecutive loss. Recently, Real Betis has been plagued by a serious injury crisis, with several key players, including Isco, Giovani Lo Celso, Sofyan Amrabat, and Juan Camilo Hernández, sidelined due to injuries, significantly weakening the team’s overall strength. Fortunately, Real Betis has shown strong home performance this season, remaining at the top of the league for home matches, achieving an impressive record of 7 wins, 1 draw, and 2 losses in their last 10 home games. Additionally, they have demonstrated considerable resilience in breaking down opponents at home.
Feyenoord, on the other hand, secured a 4-2 victory against Heracles in the Eredivisie last weekend, clinching their second consecutive win. However, Feyenoord has also faced injury woes, with over ten players unable to play due to injuries, most of whom are key defenders, putting pressure on their defense. Furthermore, Feyenoord’s attacking play relies heavily on Ayase Ueda. Although this Japanese player possesses excellent finishing ability and technical skills, his physicality is lacking, making his advantages less noticeable in high-stakes matches. In European competitions, Ueda has also been clearly limited. It is also worth noting that Feyenoord’s away performance in European competitions has been poor, having lost all three away matches so far this season, with two of those games ending in a shutout.
Comparing the performances of the two teams in European competitions, Real Betis clearly outshines Feyenoord and has more experience in such tournaments. Additionally, there is a noticeable difference in the performances of both teams at home and away, with Real Betis being strong at home while Feyenoord struggles away. Overall, it is reasonable to predict that Real Betis will leverage their home advantage to secure all three points in this match.
