Los Blancos travel to Seville with the need of coming back after four consecutive draws. People are already talking about crisis at the club, so they should get the three points to forget the recent bad results.
Real Betis v Real Madrid Preview
Real Madrid are suffering too many injuries recently. After the international games, Zinedine Zidane lost a new player, Sergio Ramos. The defender will be out six weeks with a sprain in his knee. The Spanish full back joined Luka Modric, Casemiro or James Rodríguez in the nursery room. Marcelo should be available for the coach.
With so many injuries, especially in the midfield, Toni Kroos, who has recently extended his contract with Real Madrid, will play as a stopper. Mateo Kovacic and Isco could join him in the midfield. The Spanish playmaker had some minutes with Spain against Albania and also played in the last game with Eibar. Real Madrid are force to win after four consecutive draws to add some pressure to Atlético de Madrid, current leaders of the table.
Real Betis are not at their best either. The Andalusian team lost the last game against Real Sociedad and they are close to the relegation area with only eight points. Betis have only won two games -Valencia and Málaga- and the coach, Gustavo Poyet, is already under some pressure.

Real Betis vs Real Madrid Prediction
Real Madrid need to win after four consecutive draws. Especially painful was the last one against Eibar, theoretically a week team that should have been easy to beat. However, Los Blancos played the worst game of the season and Zizou had reasons to be angry. Good news is that Cristiano Ronaldo seems in good shape after scoring four goals in two games with Portugal.
Betis are having several problems to win the games and the team has not understood yet what Poyet wants. They are struggling in La Liga and have not shown a good level yet. Against Barcelona or Sevilla the team didn’t have the possession and had little opportunities to score a goal.
Real Madrid failed to win last season at Benito Villamarín Stadium. Los Blancos drew (1-1) with Benzema scoring the only goal. It was Zinedine Zidane first game without victory on the bench. Although the French manager has good memories of this stadium because he scored one of the best goals in his career. Real Madrid thrashed (0-5) Betis two seasons ago.
