Arsenal vs Real Betis Preview


Arsenal look confident after a long unbeaten run, including plenty of wins. Real Betis have faced lower-quality opponents in pre-season and the Gunners can beat the Green and Whites. 

Key Stats - Gunners In-Form


  • Arsenal have won 6 of their last 7 matches.

H2H - First Meeting


This will be the first-ever meeting between Arsenal and Real Betis. 

Arsenal Have Momentum


Premier League champions Arsenal are in hard-to-beat form following a nine-match unbeaten streak in all competitions. The Gunners have won seven fixtures in that period. 

Mikel Arteta’s side won five matches in a row near the end of the 2025/26 season. Arsenal completed their league campaign with a 2-1 win at Crystal Palace before a 1-1 draw against PSG in the Champions League final. 

The Gunners made a winning start to pre-season and comfortably beat Girona 4-1. Kai Havertz, Christos Tzolis, Max Dowman and Gabriel Jesus scored and Arsenal had 1.95 XG.

Real Betis Face a Step Up in Quality


Real Betis have won four of five pre-season friendlies and lost just once. The Green and Whites started pre-season with a 3-0 win over fourth-tier German side Lotte. 

Manuel Pellegrini’s side then beat Segunda Federacion team Recreativo de Huelva 1-0 and lost 1-0 at Granada. Real Betis responded with a 4-0 triumph over Lyon. 

The LaLiga team followed the Lyon victory with a 1-0 win against Segunda Division outfit Almeria, where Mantero Corralejo scored after 70 minutes. 

Predicted Starting Lineups & Team News


Arsenal (4-2-3-1): Kepa Arrizabalaga; Cristhian Mosquera, Marli Salmon, Piero Hincapie, Riccardo Calafiori; Ethan Nwaneri, Miles Lewis-Skelly, Kai Havertz; Max Dowman, Gabriel Jesus, Christos Tzolis

Christian Norgaard is unlikely to feature against Real Betis. The midfielder is nearing a transfer to Everton.

Forward Bukayo Saka and midfielder Declan Rice are among eight players who have extended rest after the World Cup. 

Real Betis (4-2-3-1): Manuel Gonzalez; Hector Bellerin, Diego Llorente, Valentin Gomez, Junior Firpo; Marc Roca, Mantero Corralejo; Antony, Isco, Pablo Fornals; Gonzalo Petit

Goalkeeper Diego Conde has a shoulder injury and is ruled out against Arsenal. 

Verdict

Arsenal will be eager to push on after a commanding victory over Girona. Real Betis face a tougher test compared to recent opponents and a Gunners’ win has value.
