Real Madrid are off to a superb start. A victory over Einracht 2-0 in the UEFA Supe Cup, and three consecutive victories in the Spanish championship over Almeria, Celta, and Espanyol. Real Madrid has scored a total of nine goals in the current La Liga. At the same time, each match saw the Meringues concede once, i.e. both teams scored. It is also worth noting that Real Madrid has not played a single game at home since the start of the season, and the upcoming one will be the first one at home. One more reason to bet on Ancelotti's team.
“Our ideas won't change and we want to keep the same system and retain our identity. We push harder at home and we will try to be more intense, aggressive. It's a tough game because Betis produce some good football, they're in great form and playing with confidence. But we're in good shape and now the season really starts because we've got games every three days. The squad is ready to compete in every competition".
Real Betis
Like Real Madrid, Betis is very good at the start of the season. The Green-and-Whites have won three out of three matches against Elche, Mallorca, and Osasuna. They have not yet had any top opponents, but the statistics suggest that Sevillians are in really good shape. They are the closest pursuers to Real Madrid and, at the moment, their main rivals.
