Real Betis

Real Betis carry a few injury worries into this one. Diego Conde is out and is not expected back until mid-September, Giovani Lo Celso is a confirmed absentee, and Aitor Ruibal continues his recovery from surgery. That leaves the home side juggling their options across the spine of the team.

Real Madrid

Real Betis vs Real Madrid Prediction & Best Picks

Our Prediction

Betis are stubborn at home against Real Madrid, but the visitors are simply flying right now. Our prediction is a Real Madrid win, likely 3-2, in a matchup that should have goals at both ends given Betis's shaky defense last time out and Madrid's red-hot attack.

Best Picks

Yes selection in the Both Teams To Score market for Real Betis vs Real Madrid. This sits firmly in the Both Teams To Score market. The projected 3.73 total expected goals points to a wide-open game, and a 61.24% implied probability of scorers at both ends looks right given Betis's danger at home and Madrid's relentless finishing.

Real Betis vs Real Madrid Same Game Parlay

This SGP covers four angles on Madrid's firepower: Kylian Mbappe over 2.5 shots on target, Mbappe over 3.5 shots, Antony over 3.5 shots, and over 1.5 Real Madrid team goals.

Mbappe over 2.5 shots on target is a strong opener. He has hit 3+ shots on target in every one of his last three LaLiga appearances, and Betis tend to leak chances down the wings.

Mbappe over 3.5 shots stacks neatly on top. He has gone to 4+ shot attempts across all three of his recent LaLiga outings, and a high-volume Madrid attack should give him plenty of looks here.

Antony over 3.5 shots keeps the theme going. Betis's own creator has fired 4+ shots in three straight LaLiga games, and he loves to let fly from the right.

Over 1.5 Real Madrid team goals rounds out the parlay. Madrid have netted two or more goals in all four of their most recent LaLiga games, burying 10 across the opening three.

At the time of writing, this Same Game Parlay pays a best price of +600 and is as short as +450 elsewhere. That's a difference in potential winnings of $15 from best to worst price.

Real Betis vs Real Madrid Talking Points

There is a lot riding on this one beyond three points. Real Betis are gearing up for their first UEFA Champions League group campaign in 21 years, so a statement result against a top side would set the tone. Real Madrid have looked razor sharp in return, winning six straight in LaLiga and scoring freely. The subplot is whether Betis's home comfort against Madrid, unbeaten in their last four LaLiga meetings on their own ground, can survive a visiting attack that has scored 10 goals in three games.
