Real Madrid-Betis: gunning for a win ahead of international break
The Whites host the Andalusian side at the Santiago Bernabéu tonight on LaLiga matchday 4 (9:30pm CEST).
A demanding September gets underway for Real Madrid. This evening, our team welcomes Betis to the Santiago Bernabéu in the fourth round of LaLiga (9:30pm CEST). It will be the first of six games that Ancelotti's side will play between now and October, in which they will also face Real Sociedad, Espanyol, Alavés and Atlético Madrid, as well as making their Champions League debut against Stuttgart.
Having played last Thursday against UD Las Palmas, our team face their second game of the week before the international break. The madridistas will be looking for another win in LaLiga, where they have gone 35 games without defeat since September 2023. They will be counting on the support of the Bernabéu, where they opened with a win a week ago against Valladolid. In addition, the team has not lost at home since April 2023.

"The team is motivated to get back to playing well again and to regain the solidity we had before," said Ancelotti in the pre-match press conference. The squad includes Valverde, Real Madrid‘s top scorer with two goals, and Endrick, who made his debut with a stunning goal exactly seven days ago in front of the fans at the Bernabéu.

Manuel Pellegrini's side started matchday four in 15th with a game in hand. In their first two LaLiga games they drew away to both Girona and Alavés, and this week they beat FC Kryvbas to secure their place in the Conference League.
