Betis vs Real Madrid predictions

Real Betis will host Real Madrid on Matchday 26 of La Liga. 

Betis sit seventh in the table with 35 points from 25 matches. They are just outside the European places on goal difference. 

Madrid sits second in the table with 54 points. They trail leaders Barcelona on goal difference and are involved in a three-way battle for the title, with city rivals Atletico in third place just one point behind.

Despite the 19-point gap between Betis and Madrid, Los Verdiblancos is having a good season. Manuel Pellegrini’s team are on course to at the very least match their seventh-place finish from last year. 

The Green and Whites have also made it through to the last 16 of the Europa Conference League, where they face Vitoria S.C of the Primeira Liga on Thursday.

Before Betis can worry about Europe, head coach Manuel Pellegrini has to focus on Real Madrid this Saturday.  

Los Verdiblancos has a poor record against Real. They haven’t beaten Los Blancos in any of their last nine meetings, losing four and drawing five. 

But they do approach Saturday’s match in high spirits after beating Getafe 2-1 at the Estadio Coliseum last Sunday with two goals from Isco. 

Furthermore, Antony is now available for the match. 

The on-loan Manchester United forward was sent off in the win and suspended for this weekend’s fixture. But his red card was later cancelled in a move that is reported to have enraged Real Madrid.

Real Madrid is in the middle of a fixture pile-up. 

On Wednesday night a shadow team defeated Real Sociedad 1-0 in the first leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final. Endrick got the only goal of the game in a rare appearance for the young Brazilian.

After they play Betis, Carlo Ancelotti’s team will take on Atletico in the first leg of their Round of 16 Champions League showdown on Tuesday. 

And after having to play in the Champions League playoffs, as well as the Supercopa and FIFA Club World Cup in recent weeks, the fixtures are now starting to stack up for the La Liga champions.

How long Real can keep this going is anybody’s guess. But they certainly showed no signs of slowing down in the 6-3 aggregate win over Manchester City in the Champions League playoffs.

Los Blancos were also on song in La Liga last Sunday, with a 2-0 win over Girona at the Santiago Bernabeu giving them their first win in three in the league. 

Goals from Luka Modric and Vinicius Junior sealed a convincing victory for Ancelotti’s team.

Betis vs Real Madrid betting tips

With a Madrid derby in the Champions League on the horizon, Los Blancos may already have one eye on their next fixture, possibly opening the door for Betis to cause an upset on Saturday.

Betis to win or draw

This might be a slightly risky bet, but Real Betis is in a good place at the moment, while Real Madrid are trying to compete in three competitions at the same time. 

Real have just played two extra matches against Manchester City in the Champions League and they are halfway through a two-legged Copa del Rey semi-final against Real Sociedad.

Furthermore, Los Blancos have dropped seven points from their last 12 in La Liga. 

Real Betis are coached by ex-Real Madrid manager Manuel Pellegrini and they also have ex-Real Madrid playmaker Isco in good form playing in the attacking midfielder role. 

This match looks like a potential banana skin for Madrid.

Over 2.5 goals and BTTS

If you’re slightly unsure about the first betting tip, then this one looks like a good alternative bet.

Real Betis have had over 2.5 goals in five of their last six matches, with both teams scoring in four. 

The arrival of Antony has seen an increase in goals for Betis in recent weeks. And they even scored consistently before the Brazilian’s arrival, with the Green and White scoring in nine of their last ten in La Liga.

Real Madrid’s league matches have seen fewer goals in recent times. But if Betis are as open and attacking as they have been in recent weeks, Madrid could also find themselves scoring one or two.

Isco to score or assist

Isco is enjoying life after Real Madrid. With 12 goals in his 39-match Betis career, he has become a fan favourite at the Estadio Benito Villamarín. 

Injury has held the 32-year-old back this season. He only returned to the team from the bench in the Matchday 16 fixture against Barcelona in December.

Restored to the starting XI on Matchday 18 against Rayo Vallecano, Isco scored his team’s only goal in the 1-1 draw. 

Including the goal against Vallecano, Isco has scored four goals and provided one assist in his eight La Liga starts this season. This run also includes his two goals against Getafe on Sunday. 

Don’t be surprised to see him make some contribution against Madrid.
