Betis could only finish 15th in the league phase of this competition. They then beat Gent in the play-off round to reach the last 16. They will face another Belgian club in the last eight if progressing and Cercle Bruges defeat Jagiellonia Bialystok from Poland.

Vitoria de Guimaraes possible starting lineup: Varela; Maga, Borevkovic, Villanueva, Mendes; Silva, Handel; Santos, Mendes, Embalo; Oliveira

The morale of the home team couldn't be any higher and there's no doubt that they are taking this clash very seriously as well. Guimaraes did well so far, but away from home they don't tend to be that confident nor proactive in the attack. There's a quality difference too speaking in favor of morale-boosted Betis. In terms of predictions, analysts favor Real Betis to secure a narrow victory. Various sources suggest a predicted scoreline of 2-1 or even 2-0 in favor of the home team . This expectation is largely attributed to Betis's superior statistics in head-to-head encounters and their ability to capitalize on home advantage. However, it is crucial to note that while Betis has faced more formidable opponents recently, Vitória's unbeaten streak indicates their capacity to compete at high levels despite facing less challenging competition.

Key player absences may influence the outcome; Real Betis will be without Roca and Lo Celso due to injuries, while Vitória will miss Félix and Relvas . The absence of these players could affect team dynamics significantly. As fans look forward to live streaming options for this eagerly anticipated matchup (though specific platforms remain unspecified), it becomes evident that this fixture not only highlights tactical battles but also showcases individual talents such as Isco for Betis and Úmaro Embaló for Guimarães.
