Real Betis will face Real Madrid in week 16 of the 2023-2024 La Liga on Saturday, December 09, 2023 KO-time11:15 ET, watch online streaming on the ESPN+, ESPN Deportes. Here’s the review, h2h statistics, line-up predictions, TV channel info and where to watch the live stream.
Real Madrid, who currently leads La Liga, will visit Betis’ headquarters in the 16th week of La Liga 2023-24 on Saturday 9/12, with the hope of maintaining their position at the top of the standings. However, Betis is not an easy opponent to beat, especially at home.
Real Madrid is in very good form, unbeaten in the last 13 matches, and winning in the last 5 matches. Their striker, Rodrygo Goes, is in excellent form, scoring 7 goals in the last 5 matches in all competitions.
With the right strategy from Carlo Ancelotti, Los Blancos currently leads La Liga with 38 points, only ahead of Girona on goal difference. If they lose this match, their position at the top of the standings could be threatened.
On the other hand, Real Betis has won the last 6 home matches and will be looking hard to continue their home winning streak. However, their recent performance has been less consistent, winning only 2 of the last 5 matches.
Both teams are facing injury problems. Betis will be without 6 of their core players, including goalkeepers Claudio Bravo and Guilherme Fernandes, defenders Marc Bartra and Youssouf Sabaly, and midfielders Rodrigo Sanchez and Nabil Fekir.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid also lost several important players, including goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois, defender Eder Militao, midfielders Luka Modric, Aurelien Tchouameni, Eduardo Camavinga, Arda Guler and striker Vinicius Jr.
However, Real Madrid has a deep squad and Ancelotti may not be too worried about the injury problem. They will hope to exploit Betis’ weaknesses and grab the three points.
However, this match will not be easy for Real Madrid. Betis is a strong team and they play very well at home. Manuel Pellegrini’s troops have the ambition to enter the top six in the near future. They are only 1 point adrift of Real Sociedad who are in 6th place, just above them. Real Madrid might be able to win, but most likely only by a one goal difference.
