Real Madrid vs Real Betis Main Match Info

Real Madrid vs Real Betis Moneyline Prediction

Last season, Real Betis recorded their first victory against Real Madrid in five years; their last win at the Bernabéu dates back to 2019. Although Los Blancos will be without Kylian Mbappé due to injury, they’re unlikely to suffer another home defeat in La Liga (after the loss to Celta Vigo). 

Madrid have kept the most clean sheets in the league (eight). 

Real Madrid vs Real Betis Player Prop

In the absence of Mbappé, it’s Bellingham who will be expected to step up as the team’s leading playmaker. He can count on the support of Vinícius Jr and Rodrygo on either wing, with both players regularly breaking through Sevilla’s defence in their 2-0 victory before the break.

Kylian Mbappé accounts for 50% of Real Madrid’s goals up to this point, which is why Jude Bellingham, Arda Güler, and Vinícius need to step up. They’ll face another high-scoring team, though their defensive leaks should allow Los Blancos to gain a tactical advantage. 

As Madrid can deploy faster players, breaking on the counter will be key to swinging the match in their favour.

Real Madrid Team News

After a 2-0 victory over Sevilla before the winter break, Xabi Alonso’s job as head coach is safe, for now. Yet a few slip-ups could change the situation, as seen in recent losses to Manchester City and Celta Vigo. 

Dependence may be the best way to describe Real Madrid’s current issue. Mbappé accounts for 50% of the club’s goals, and Los Blancos have lacked consistency in their game plans to make up for it. 

They usually rely on pressure and outscoring opponents more than anything. While the team have generally kept goals conceded to a low number, that trend is unlikely to continue without Mbappé pressurising the backline.

Although important, the match against Real Betis won’t be the most important fixture in the coming weeks. Los Blancos face Atlético de Madrid in the Spanish Super Cup just four days later. An embarrassing defeat could be enough to trigger a dismissal. 

Kylian Mbappé, Éder Militão, Dani Carvajal, and Trent Alexander-Arnold will be sidelined due to injuries. Brahim Díaz will also miss the game as he’s been called up by Morocco’s national team for AFCON. 

Real Betis Team News

Real Betis have only won twice in their last five matches, though goals have never been a problem for the team. In that same span, there’s been just one game in which the squad failed to find the back of the net (a 0-0 draw vs Rayo Vallecano).

Coach Manuel Pellegrini has focused on the attacking quartet since he arrived at the club, placing Isco and Fornals as the playmakers, with added pace from Antony. 

The main issue lies instead in the double pivot, where Marc Roca and Nelson Deossa lack either the physical build or the creativity to make a difference. 

Real Betis thrashed Getafe 4-0 in their most recent outing, which featured a brace from Aitor Ruibal, as well as goals from Pablo Fornals and Cucho Hernández.

Junior Firpo and Diego Llorente will be sidelined due to injuries, while Isco is awaiting medical clearance. Cédric Bakambu (DR Congo), Abde, and Sofyan Amrabat (Morocco) will also miss the match as they’ve been called up by their national teams for AFCON.
