Real Betis managed their first win of the season, beating Granada 2-1 in La Liga and will be looking to keep the momentum when facing Celtic in the Europa League. The two sides face off on the back of returns to winning ways and a tough battle is expected in Group G, which has Bayer Leverkusen and Ferencvaros. Betis haven’t managed a clean sheet in their opening four matches of the season, but only failed to score in one of the four games. Both teams have scored in four of their last five matches and while they seek to tighten up defensively, they’ll be eyeing a good show in Europa League too. They have one win in their last five Europa League matches, and in each of the last two, they’ve conceded three goals. Their last Europa League game was in 2019 and they suffered a 3-1 loss at home to French side Rennes. That marked a third straight winless game in the competition, having drawn the earlier two.

Celtic lost out in the Champions League playoffs, and that’s how they landed here. They had a shaky start to the season but things have improved lately. Their form ahead of this game isn’t the best though, with two losses in three matches but they will be boosted by the 3-0 win over Ross County in the Premiership. The visitors have three clean sheets in five matches going to this game and have scored two or more goals in three of the five matches. Celtic’s away form isn’t the best; they have four losses and only one win in five though they’ve failed to score in just one of the said five games. Four of their last five away matches have produced over 2.5 goals. Most of their recent matches in Europa League have been in qualifiers, and they have lost just one of the last five.
