Despite their contrasting league positions, the teams currently sit only five points apart and it’s sure to be a brilliant match (Levante 11/8, draw 9/4, Betis 19/10 – Match Betting).

Levante have been the surprise package of the season so far and having previously been one of the favourites to be relegated, they have astounded both fans and pundits alike and currently sit just a single point outside the European places in fifth.

Where other sides have sought success by buying big, the Granotas have built their squad by bringing in solid players on free transfers and have a number of familiar names to regular followers of La Liga football, with the likes of former Spanish internationals Juanfran and Asier Del Horno in their squad.

However, their ageing stars’ legs look to have started to catch up with them in the last month or so, but they got back on track last Saturday with a 2-1 win against Espanyol. If they continue to show fatigue for the rest of the campaign, they will have to rely heavily on striker Arouna Kone, the Ivorian who is on a season-long deal from Sevilla where he has continuously failed to deliver but looks to have found his feet at a smaller club.

He is sure to be sniffing around the penalty area and with the experience in defence that Juan Ignacio Martinez’s side possess, he could well pop up with a decisive winner (Levante 6/1 to win 1-0).

Betis themselves started the season in fine style, topping the table after four fixtures, but quickly slipped down to near the relegation places and at one point looked as if they could well return to the Segunda after their promotion last term.

However, they have found their form in recent games and now look as if they could sail clear of the drop zone after wins against both Bilbao and Zaragoza as well as last week’s draw with Getafe.

Much of their success is down to strike duo Ruben Castro and Jorge Molina who fired them to success last season and have had a similar effect this. Their pace could trouble the sluggish Levante central defenders and the duo’s combination will certainly have a huge say on the outcome of what otherwise looks a tight match (11/2 for a 0-0 draw).

As already mentioned, Levante’s ageing rearguard appears to be starting to struggle and with the pace Los Beticos possess up front, the visitors will be confident of sneaking a tight victory, most likely by a single goal (Betis 11/1 to win 2-1).

If form is anything to go by then, surely, there is only one winner here when looking at the match odds. Leicester, at 2/5, are predictably short favourites such is their fine recent record. Eriksson’s side are on an 11-match unbeaten run in front of their own fans and we can’t see anything other than another three points for the home side in this one. Don’t be tempted by the visitors’ price of 15/2 to cause a surprise.

Such has been Eriksson’s impact at the club that Leicester have not lost at the Walkers since he took charge. They are now seeking their seventh win in eight Championship games and their fifth straight victory as they chase down Leeds in sixth place.

The Foxes remain four points off a play-off spot at the minute but are looking in great shape to challenge as we begin the countdown to the end of the season.

It is with that in mind that a bold prediction of 4-1 in the correct score market (16/1) is made as we envisage Eriksson’s men racing into an early lead, roared on by an expectant home crowd.

The Foxes’ boss has no fresh injury worries either ahead of the game, although Yuki Abe could be recalled in place of Matt Oakley. On-loan striker Yakubu has spoken about how much he is enjoying his time under Eriksson and he has clearly benefited from the drop down in a division, scoring three times so far. A good bet, then, at 4/1 to score first in this game.

Bristol City are aiming for their first league double over Leicester since 1915 but the 2-0 win at Ashton Gate earlier in the campaign seems extremely unlikely to be repeated here.

The 4-0 rout of Preston aside, Keith Millen’s men have bore all the hallmarks of a side lacking confidence in the past few months and have slipped further down the table as a run of just two wins in 11 has left the Robins, who could have striker Nicky Maynard back after a lengthy absence, staring worryingly at a relegation scrap.

Even a draw, on offer at 10/3, looks beyond them but Maynard to score at any time (9/4) could be worth a punt, even if it is only a consolation.
