Real Madrid will be looking to keep their hopes of winning the Spanish top flight alive when they travel this weekend to the south of Spain to face seventh-placed Real Betis.
The hosts have been a force to be reckoned with since the humiliating 0-5 defeat to Barcelona on match day five. Manuel Pellegrini's side enter this weekend's game with plenty of confidence after avoiding defeat in each of their last ten games in La Liga. While it can be said that only four of those games were won, the fact that the Greens kept a clean sheet four times in that spell will give them plenty of motivation ahead of their visit to Real, who are deadly in the final third.
Real Madrid surrendered the La Liga title to Barcelona by ten points last season, but it looks like the Madrilenians are determined to reclaim the title this season. Carlo Ancelotti's men have suffered just one defeat in all competitions this season and sit top of both the Spanish top flight table and their Champions League Group. But with only goal difference separating the Los Blancos from second-placed Girona in the league, they will not want to drop any points this weekend.
Real Betis vs Real Madrid Betting Tips: Real Madrid to win and Under 2.5 goals
Betis may be in the top half of the table, but they have been very goal-shy in recent weeks. The boys in green needed a stoppage time goal from Iglesias in midweek to beat Villanovense in the Copa del Rey and have scored under 1.5 goals in four of their last five games. Four of those matches ended with under 2.5 goals.
Real Madrid scored at least three times in four of their last five games, but they often struggle to score against Betis. In each of the last five meetings between the two teams, Los Blancos scored more than one goal only once.
Carlo Ancelotti's side won only two of those games, but we believe they have enough quality to take home all three points on Saturday.

Real Betis team news
Real Betis head coach Manuel Pellegrini is set to be without the services of Héctor Bellerín after the defender received a straight red card against Almeria last weekend.
The 28-year-old is joined on the hosts’ list of absentees by Nabil Fekir (knee), Youssouf Sabaly (muscle) and Marc Bartra (Achilles tendon) who are nursing injuries.
Willian José has been the club’s main provider for goals this season with six and should lead the line alongside Ayoze Pérez who has four goals to his name.

Real Madrid team news
Having had no action in mid-week, Real Madrid will have their players fresh for this game, but Vinicius Junior, Eduardo Camavinga and Aurélien Tchouaméni are still injured.
Los Blancos' treatment room also has the likes of Thibaut Courtois and Éder Militão (cruciate ligament rupture) and Kepa Arrizabalaga (adductor).
The goals have been shared since Benzema's departure to the Saudi Arabian professional league, but Jude Bellingham is the standout player with eleven league goals and two assists.
