Real Betis haven't reached a European quarter-final for 27 years. They host Vitoria Guimaraes in the first leg of their Europa Conference League last 16 tie. Can The Best live up to their name and get a home win? Here's our match prediction.
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.
Standing between them and the last eight are Vitoria Guimaraes who were second in the league stage. The Portuguese side are yet to lose a match in the Conference League this season. Not since 1987 have the Conquerors reached the last eight of a European competition. As you'll read in the form section of this preview, their away form is not the greatest in the world. Can they get at least a draw in Spain?

Betis & Vitoria SC Guimaraes Squad Analysis
Real Betis will want a lead to take to Portugal but their preparation for this Conference League hasn't been running smoothly. They are expected to be without a number of key players for this game.
Injury problems for Betis.
The likely absence of Giovani Lo Celso, Abdessamad Ezzalzouli, Ricardo Rodrigues and William Carvalho isn't going to boost their qualification hopes. Marc Roca is also a major doubt for this fixture.
They do have the confidence of just having beaten Real Madrid at home. If they can do that, then beating Guimaraes is definitely something that can be achieved.
The visitors also have some injury problems. Bruno Gaspar and Gustavo Silva are unlikely to play in this first leg. They have been keeping it tight in recent matches and could field an unchanged side after beating Casa Pia last time out. The only possible change might be the recall of Umaro Embalo.
